Tri-ang Ships (Minic) Waterline Models 705 'Aquitania'
Tri-ang Ships (Minic) Waterline M705 Aquitania. Very near mint, with original bagged masts & paper wrapping. Rare item from The Island Collection and a First for QDT!
Notes
From the set of Waterline issues from this very successful toy manufacturer. In 1:1200 scale, this Aquitania model is finished in black and white with red and black funnels.
The underside of the ship reveals the wording ‘Pats Pen’ (patent pending) and the familiar Minic logo along with other pertinent information.
All original, this cast model ocean liner is completely unused, and if further proof were needed, please note that this model ship comes with its delicate masts still in the original clear plastic bag with white print.
The yellow card box with blue print is complete and bright. Little puncture (pressed back into place) and light wear. Nice to see that this model still has its original paper wrapping too.
