Is there any evidence that these two wings weren't made by Shreeve? Other than the lack of a hallmark and some rather subtle differences, its hard to imagine these two badges coming from different sources.   I kind of always figured that over time, the complexity of making the Shreeve & Co.-marked wing as a hollow multi-piece construct was simplified into a couple/three die struck parts soldered together.   My research into Shreeve suggests that they were pretty careful to design and sell their own stuff in their own shops, and it seems counterintuitive that another company would be allowed to make a "knock off" Shreeve design for sale.   P

hes still alive and they plan on interviewing him 

Either way, I don't think it takes away from the historical value. Kind of getting off my intent to share my pistol.

Nice - can't wait to see the additions!

Yea now I see the plane in the logo looks a little modern for the 1940’s… need to update Chat GPT on this one as it said it was a logo from WWII (I just use chat as a guide, not the end all be all). Thanks for the reply!

I picked it near Magu. 

It’s “authentic”, but it looks Korean War era to me (based on that Top Rank logo)

My Skyhawk is done and ready to be hung with my other models in my office/museum! It was fun to build a jet after doing figures and helos for so long. I learned a lot and I have already started to build an A7 Corsair II, my dad’s second plane that he flew in VA83. I will share pics when I have made some progress.

I saw this on eBay, and held off on posting it until the auction was over.  I don't know if the seller was accurate in his description, he didn't offer much else than the title.  Here's a couple of pictures, the item was number 358655190240.  Anybody have any ideas?
