The early Campbell kits I believe from the original Ayres kits

Leo Campbell told me he was cutting strip wood for the E. Suydam Company before he got into the kit business.

 This concludes my collection of Campbell kits

It would make sense to sell this collection to one person as it would be a great value for that person. As a bonus, they would get all the individual packages of small parts I have left over from being a distributor of the company. In addition, there are the empty boxes the kits came in, with the instructions and the Campbell color catalog I bought in the 1970's.
