models w/ detail galore, uniform accessories, novelty items, etc!! i receive a good number of catalogs through the mail on a regular basis. they are all fun to look at, but in this economy who has the luxury to buy?? what percentage is not made off shore??

No idea, but I used to get one catalogue on a regular basis that was WW1 & on 'memorabilia'. The WW2 section of this thing had so much 'repop' Wermacht crap in it that I'd have to march out to the recycle can singing and drinking beer just to throw it out, it was/is kinda creepy and a bit disturbing but I'd guess it went over well in Northern Idaho.

It is not all made offshore. I have a friend who is a pilot in Witchata, who has some great WW II type signs for sale. She had them made by a local artist, they are about 8 by 11 or so,and have pictures of some old airplanes and not not so old ladies on them. They are in the Vargas style, but with less clothes, some with a lot less. I have not seen the actual plaque or sign , but have seen photos of them and they are the best that I have seen. I think her prices are very reasonalbt too, and they would look great to decorate a hangar or den.

If anyone is seriously interested, let me know here and I'll try to get her info for you to contact her.
