Ansaldo A. 1 "Balilla" 1917, 1/72 scale, Italian Sky series by Edison Air Line H.F., Edison GioGattoli S.p.A.;, n.d.
Scope and Contents note
The models are primarily plastic commercial models most of which are still in their boxes with the original cellophane wrapping intact. However, there are a few hand-made models, including a metal World War I-era Spad. The types of aircraft represented range from models of single-engine monoplanes prior to 1914 to jets of the 1970s. The models are listed by box and are not organized in any particular order. Each model is described by the name of the plane on the box followed by the scale of the model and special series if available, which is followed by the manufacturer.
