NC13361 This model was made by E. E. Uhlich or Riverside, ILL and is of wooden construction with nice metal props and metal antena details. It also has a Nemoto style of detail and window relief which makes it quite interesting. Sadly the putty has given way at the joins and it needs work. But I fear work would entail the necessity to completely refinish the exterior surface, which I am not sure I’d want to do given the vintage of the model, as it dates from the 40s most likely. I’d venture a comment that the model is of better accuracy than most Nemoto models. Have never heard of the maker before.
