Lot 201: WW2 Trench Art Style Twin-Engine Bomber Aircraft Model
A cast brass model of a twin-engine aircraft, produced in the style of Second World War trench art. The model features a solid cast body with integrated engine nacelles and a low-wing monoplane configuration, resembling period aircraft such as the Bristol Blenheim or Lockheed Hudson. The aircraft is fitted with fixed landing gear housing three freewheeling rubber tires. The sidewalls of the rubber tires are embossed with the manufacturer mark RICHMOND GUMMIWERKE. No maker marks or inscriptions are present on the brass body. The construction exhibits characteristic rough casting edges consistent with the manufacturing process.
