The Little World

They make them for your money. Anything downstream of this is just an extra.

Remember this when you look at the Verell kit that costs $ 35.00; the 1:53.5 scale one that has “ 1951 ” moulded inside the wing. It has been returning cash to the pockets of Verell for 75 years and pretty soon the moulds will be either complete worn out or paid for…

You can buy other kits, of course. There are fresh ones of stale subjects every year. If you desire a Mustspitschmitt we have very good news for you. If your tastes run to the impossibly exotic, someone in Prague or Posen will be able to help. All the rest who want a regular kit that has not been moulded yet can pick up their block of soap and jackknife and get busy.

Take some comfort. It is precisely the same in the model railway game. You can find products for sale that your father looked at in the toyshop window and many of them are only 400x the price now that he couldn’t afford back then.
