On-Line auction- vintage (pre-'70) Goldberg Senior Falcon kit

[Frank v B]

For Sale with all proceeds to the TEMAC kitty
Donation was from an estate.

Vintage Goldberg Models Senior Falcon Kit. 69" span, length 53", 6.25 pounds,  810 sq" wing area, .35-.60 size IC.  Based on the price on the box ($49.95) I suspect it was pre-1970.  I have an Academy Products catalogue that states the suggested retail price in Canada was $64.50 in May 1972.

This kit has the original balsa sides compared to the later Liteply in the Mark 2 model.  It appears to be a complete kit but I have no way of knowing.
There is a lot of balsa in this kit that can be re-purposed.

Auction Rules:  All bids on this post only, at least $2.00 increments on the previous posted price.  The person with the highest posted bid before 8:00*pm on Thursday, December 31, 2020 is the winner.

I will start it off with an opening bid of $20.00

Thanks @Frank v B and @GuyOReilly !  This will allow us to spring for aircraft-themed toilet paper in the "Control Tower" when it reopens once the COVID-19 restrictions are lifted.

Musing about the next construction project; what if I attached to the wing the 4 electric motors planned fro the Lancaster?!?
@Michael Twin Otter project planted that thought in my head...
I will sketch something when the kit arrives, just to see what if...

Handing over the kit to the winning bidder (Guy, Left) once he could get it from Andy's (right) meathooks.
