Description:
Up for sale is a vintage mid-century pressed steel airplane in well-loved, display condition. This is a large and impressive toy, measuring approximately 28 inches across the wings and about 22 inches in fuselage length.
The plane features “NC-2100” markings and remnants of “The Flagship” decal, along with American Airlines-style AA eagle graphics. These early airline-themed toys were inspired by real commercial aircraft from the late 1940s–1950s.
Condition notes (please read):
• Missing all propellers
• Missing main landing gear and nose wheel
• Surface wear, scratches, and areas of rust throughout
• Decals are partially worn and faded
• Bottom seam slides apart – wings can be removed and reattached
• Structurally solid for display despite wear
This is a great candidate for restoration or a fantastic display piece with authentic vintage character.
Item will be carefully packed and shipped with wings removed for safety.
