Duckworth) To: wwi Subject: Surplus stock - Revised Note Message-ID: <1996May06.052443.1155.309952@uprr-internet.notes.up.com> Revised note: As information to the group I am selling a large number of 1/72 and some 1/48 Aurora (Gotha and D.H. 10) WW1 models that I have collected over the last 10-15 years. Also uncovered three duplicate Profiles. The list includes Pegasus, Meikraft, Merlin, ESCI, Revell, Rosemont, Wings and Classic Planes, I've also undated the list this weekend with reference to Windsock's or Datafile review/comments of the kit so you can judge from Ray Rimmel's comments how good is the kit. I have approximately 120 kits and have priced below original cost or in the case of the Aurora what I paid for them ($15 each). If you'd like the list please send me a LSSAE (one first class stamp will handle). Any orders over $20, postage free.

Duckworth) To: wwi Subject: Discount Book Source for Great War Aviation Message-ID: <1996May06.105341.1155.310571@uprr-internet.notes.up.com> I have been purchasing many of my WW1 aviation books from a mail order source by the name of Edward R. Hamilton, Falls Village, CT 06031-5000. The books are in 'like new' condition (dust jacket, etc). If he does not have the book you ordered you get an immediate refund check. His last list, as example, has 'The First Air War' for $22.75, 'Fokker: The Creative Years' for $18.86, 'The Zepplin in Combat' by Robinson for $34.96. 'The Third Ypres Passchendaele Day by Day Account' for $20.96. Postage and handling is only $3.00 no matter if you order one or thirty books. Contact them at the above address for a current catalog. The catalog (free) will take you acouple of hours to read due to the size and the fact you may find WWI material under 'new arrivals' history, military history or WW1 and WW2 - the prices are reasonable enough you really don't mind the search.
