[WWI] 43 year old model

[Steven Perry]

In going through my recently passed Stepfather's things we found a box of built models. I remember modeling at the kitchen table with Robert and these were the ones he had finished. They have been in that box for 43 years. There is one OT model. A Revell 1/72 Nie.17.

I remember Bob telling me that Albert Ball had a blue cowl on his Nieuport and that was how he did it, notwithstanding the French decals that came in the kit. Those decals yellowed a bit and look more Belgian than French.

So FWIW here's a 43 year old Nieuport model.
