Wow! Some really interesting images there. Note the factory workers total lack of safety equipment, Spray painting indoors without respirators/masks, etc. Is that a lineup of two seat SPADs towards the end? I wander what the aircraft with the tall columnar radiator(?) is.

A small suggestion. Rename the post to Spruce instead of sprue. Plenty of possibilities of confusion in the model making fraternity !!!
Cheers.
