Yes it's a repro but still very visually effective. The wingspan is a huge 35".

Will be offering it for sale shortly.

IN 1968 I WAS GIVEN ONE OF THESE BY THE VET THAT BROUGHT IT BACK.IN 1970 I SOLD IT TO A STRANGER FOR $25.00.GAS AND GIRLS WERE MORE IMPORTANT THEN THE HOBBY.I WAS 17.THE PASSON STAYED BURIED TILL I WAS 49 THE IT BROKE LOOSE LIKE A BROKEN DAM.I WONDER WERE THE EAGLE IS NOW.

Did you ever sell this or are you still thinking about it? I know the feeling of "What will fill the void left by this cherished dagger/pistol/gorget/kepi/wife". It's a bugger making decisions like that!

Jim,Girls are still more important than the Hobby!.Hugh.

man that is a sad story! was the one you sold an original? would you have any idea what it would be worth today? and when will you be putting the repro up for sale?

You`ll know when you`ve had enough & then you will get your priorities right

I sold an original one of these about 2 years ago for $300. Today, June 2008, there going in the neighborhood of $2500.
I've got 2 others and Im not going to sell them anytime soon. Maybe they'll go up some more.
