I have had this in cardboard cover out of light sources for years. It deserves to be framed and displayed correctly. It is a Piece of fabric that came from the captured Fokker DVII displayed at the Smithsonian. During restoration they sold pieces with the letter of authenticity included. I will sell and ship anywhere but one should be aware it would be costly overseas. Now for the hitch. I have NO idea what to ask. So make an offer and the best one over the next two weeks will win  8)

I was never sure but I think the lighter fabric piece was covering the dark original piece for preservation when selling. Either way both will be included.







PM if interested and thanks for looking.

It's a pretty ugly result, however:

That one made £77 last December

Thanks Richard. At least it gives me a "Ballpark" figure. I would be open to reasonable trades for a 1/32nd scale kit.  8)

I know I said I would give this two weeks but in the words of a Famous Fictional Don, I was Made an Offer I can't refuse  8) I seriously doubt anyone would beat the offer. I am therefore calling this one sold/ Pending! I did check with Dave W. to make sure I wasn't violating any rules. Thanks to all for looking.

My Trade with Jason is complete. I think we are Both Quite Pleased! Just for the record Jason e mailed some photos of his Models displayed with Autographed Sanke cards and photos. His work is Awesome. I wish he would show some on the completed Models Board  8)
