The "Tiny Jewel of Energy" arrives

Bought for use on my yet to be built Grumman Avenger.

My most significant purchase related to this hobby ever. I remember looking at them in my local hobby shop some 70 years ago and not being able to afford one instead buying the less expensive Cox Babe Bee's. When your earning fifty cents an hour, five dollars for a ten hour day working on a poultry farm, a couple of bucks is a huge amount. Nostelgia purchase maybe, but it will be put to work after some restoration.

I think the instructions are permanently glued to the cardboard.




I sent this scan to Levent, maybe the emblem in the lower left hand corner will help him make a copy. Later I will attempt to remove the instructions and clean the illustration.
