These ads appeared on the back of American comic books in the early 1960's and for little money, you could get sent so much. We don't remember growing up if anyone ever manged to sure any of these toys.

We are in the process of trying to collect a set of these and many of the other series offered, and this listing is just for some of the double ups we have.

A bit like the local serial toy ships issued around the same time, many of them came with wee little bites that are often missing today. These are no exception, many had masts and guns etc, which came attached to them. You broke the wee parts off and put them on. Today it seems very hard to find them with these small pieces.

The ad is for x102 different ships, but there was never more than x68 in the range, but each ship did come in either red, yellow, green or blue so we assume that is what they meant by different.

They are between 3cm long to 9cm long.

They are: MS Bergensfjord (Red) Gt Britain 1936 Tug (Yellow) USS Canberra (Red) USS El Dorade (Blue) USS Maine (Red) Vanderbilt (Green) USS William T. Powell (Red) August Victoria (Blue) Olympia (Red) Gt Britain Tramp (Green)
