FINALLY! '49 GAS MAN



Thanks to Ron Roberts, I have finally received NICE scans of the box art I needed! I plan to build a replica of the artwork "GAS MAN". I really enjoy bringing the artwork to life as most kids never built them this way or they tried and the work was not very nice PLUS age and abuse of the builds over the years. So it is great pleasure to make them FRESH and best I can without spending countless hours. I didn't realize until today when I got the scans, that there was two kits with the GAS MAN on the side panel. Both images are from two issues of the kit. The 49'ER was kit number 2249-170 (the 170 was actual price) and the other is from the Tijuana Border Patrol kit.
