The company published 6 issues, each containing 3 models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The subjects are: civil war planes, WWII planes, Korean war planes and Spanish air force planes. Quality is medium and scale is 1:48.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are not rare models but some are unique (Spanish made aircraft and\/or the color scheme).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1960’s models<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My information and the models I purchased are mostly from the public auctions website https:\/\/en.todocoleccion.net\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It turns out that in the past, the hobby of cutting and gluing was popular in Spain, and there exists a large number of items called ‘recortable’, mostly of 2-dimensional figures but also 2- and 3-dimensional airplanes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, there are several models that were used for adertisements for various products, as well as a number of old models, including from the civil war era (1936-1939). For most of the models, there exist better models elsewhere, but the Spanish models are valuable as they represent a distict period and culture. Following are some of the most popular series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EDITORIAL VASCO AMERICANA (EVA)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least 10 models simple but colorful airplane models, each on a 22.5 x 30 cm sheets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The models are not always identified by name. For example, the Phantom II is called ‘Reactor’. At least one model is unique (Gardan G-80 Horizon).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EDICIONES TORAY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This publishing house issued a large number of airplane models during the early 1960’s, on 29 x 40 cm sheets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After examining the models I realized that they are simplified versions of old Schreiber models. Since those Schreiber models are more rare than the Spanish copies, I purchased and built two of them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I.A 33 PULQUI II – an Argentinian jet designed by Kurt Tank, the designer of the German FW aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fiat G-82 – an early Italian training jet. I built an enlarged version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
