Vtg 1940s CRUVER WWII Recognition Aircraft Model C-54 Skymaster 1:432

Description

Up for auction is a rare WWII plastic
Cruver
Japanese spotter/recognition plane. This auction is for a
Douglass C-54 Skymaster
The scale is 1/432. This is the "pocket" versions, originally meant to be held at arm's length to help identify planes in flight. The hole through each is to hang the plane on a string. The pocket versions are hard to find because most were lost or discarded after the war. They bear the Cruver trademark - a "C" inside a circle, which looks similar to a copyright symbol.  This is not the Kix Cereal versions released in the 1950s.
The detail on this small plane is incredible, and the condition is fantastic, considering they are nearly 70 years old.
I always try to highlight any defects I may find in the images so you know exactly what you're getting. Please look closely at all photos and ask any questions you may have before bidding. Check out my other auctions! I have other interesting vintage items up for sale, including many more Cruver pocket recognition planes and MORE that will be posted in the next couple of weeks (a collection of 40 planes!). I will gladly combine shipping to save you money on multiple purchases. Thanks for looking and good luck!
