Posted: Thu Jun 02, 2011 3:51 amA 1/100 metal Walker Westway Vickers Vanguard in Eastern Airlines livery has sold on ebay for $665. A fairly rare model, obviously done up for sales purposes in the late 50s.

Nice vintage metal airplane display model in older Eastern Airlines markings. Not positive of the aircraft type. Have a close look. There are no propellers and probably there never were. I believe it had clear plastic discs to simulate spinning
props. Has decal on bottom: WALKER'S WESTWAY MODELS, EAST ACTON. Wood base, brass metal support.
Length is 15" and wing span 15 1/2". Believe this is 1950's vintage.
