This is a listing for a vintage 1950’s Topping – North American Aviation, Inc. USAF – F-100 Super Sabre Contractors Desk Top Model with original pamphlet and original box with cardboard inserts. This plane is made of plastic and measures approximately 13 inches long with a 10 inch wingspan. It comes to you still in excellent overall condition, with no chips, breaks or cracks that I have noticed. Some of the decals show some slight signs of wear, but are overall clean and in very nice condition. Plane is also overall very clean showing only some small / slight dirt marks. Metal Pitot tube is included. Red paint on tube shows some small signs of age wear / flaking. It fits very loosely into the hole in the plane and there is a small melt mark by it. Not sure if this was the metal touching the plastic or a prior attempt to lightly glue it in place. Original stand is also included. It is also in very nice condition, showing only some minor / slight signs of age and storage wear. It looks like the clear part of the stand may have been re-glued in the past, but it is securely attached to the base and easily holds up the plane. The bottom of the stand has an very slight inscription in what looks like pencil. It says “From Dad”, so this must have been a gift. This might be removable but we did not try and left it in place for the nostalgia factor. Finally we have the small pamphlet that originally came with the plane. There is information about the plane inside and design specifics on the back. It is in overall good / very good condition, but shows the usual and expected small signs of age and storage wear. This plane would make a superb addition to any collection. Please see our pictures for details. International Buyers Please Note.
