Boxed Tinplate Louis Marx & Co. Four Engine Skycruiser Aeroplane Toy

~ Boxed Tinplate Louis Marx & Co. Four Engine Skycruiser Aeroplane Toy ~

A c1965 boxed, battery operated four engine 'Skycruiser' aeroplane produced by Louis Marx & Co. in the then British Colony of Hong Kong.

The plane has B.O.A.C. markings and moves forward with revolving propellers.

~ Dimensions ~

The box measures 6.5 inches by 6.5 inches (16.5cm), with a height of 2.5 inches (6.5cm).

The plane has a length of 6 inches (15.25cm) and a wingspan of 7 inches (17.75cm).

~ Condition ~

The aeroplane is in excellent condition, with only minimal wear. The battery compartment is clean, it is not working though turning the wheels manually does drive the propellers, so I suspect just a loose connection somewhere.

The box has some minimal wear, the vibrant box work colours remain bright. It retains the original tissue and tail fin card insert.
