Here is my collection of Gluck Manufacturing co. toys . Combination wood and metal constructor kits . 3 BUILD-A-PLANE kits , and a BUILD-A-ZEP kit . The airplanes have a 11 1/2 inch wing span , with pulley driven props . The Zeppelin is about 16 inches long .

Pulled the zeppelin apart and clean each piece . Went threw the box of parts and started reassemble , as per instruction sheet . Hard on your fingers and quit tedious , but I am slowly getting it . Here are pics of the inside , showing the attachment plates , and how it is held together .

The Zeppelin is back together and shelf ready for display . The only repaint I had to do was the nose cone . It laid around in a box too long and was covered with surface rust . Everything else is still original paint . I'm very pleased with how it came out .
