A big seller in the twentieth century – these ‘official’ Schabak model airplanes where available in airport duty free stores & on-board passenger shopping catalogs.
The idea was a ‘keepsake’ of your trip & the aircraft that carried you – this collection is just that…
Introduced to us as “Uncle’s collection. He travelled a lot for work, you see”
These planes cover the ‘long haul’ years of this collection – 1980-1990 – See Pt1 listing here – a-travellers-collection-pt-1
