More 1/2" Scale models

This Mt. Vernon Flatcar is all made out of brass and sequin pins as the rivets. Each one is drilled and soldered. These are the old aluminum wheel sets that Johnny Lower was selling. I just bought some wheel sets from Karl Kruger in NY last year that are real nice also.

Very nice --- were you down here over the years for the parades??? I don't recall running into you , back then . Noticed Lower's sunbursts on Sparks --- I still have a few of those sets too. You old timers are just full of tricks --- I suppose next , we'll find out that you worked a flying return , or wheel of death act too !

Jim, I only worked a Cradle act and high wire. None of that fancy stuff for me!
