Lindberg Kits from Busch Moulds
The German company Busch+Co KG lauched a series of plastic
aircraft kits and built-up models in 1958.
Production ended in 1962 and the moulds were sold to
Lindberg [3].
Scale was nominally 1:175.
I have not yet a Lindberg catalog of 1962 and 1963
so I cannot determine eactly when the Lindberg ditribution was
launched. In any
case the licence produced Busch kits appear in the Lindberg
1964/65 catalog. A doublecheck yields, that the ex-Busch kits do not yet appear in the
German and US Lindberg 1960 catalogue.

Plastic Kits
In the Lindberg
1964-65 catalog, these kits are enlisted as members
of three individual series. This is reflected in the arrangement
below.
