Hi Graham,
Thank you very much for your comments about my collection.
The model was made in 1954 by Peter Nelson. You might know that he was one of the most respected model makers of his time. He was known for his detail and animation. Some of his best work was on motorized cutaway connies. The props have motors and it has both interior and exterior lights. Just amazing!!! The model itself is 1/36 scale. It is recorded that 7 models were made for Trans Canada Airlines back in late 1950's and this is the only one I know off that wears the all silver introductory livery.
He also is known for his 1/72 and 1/48 scale metal Conies.
Graham, please email me at
[email protected] so I can send you some photos if you are interested.
From what I read I hear you have quite a collection yourself. I would love to know what you collect.
Best regards,
Mark
