    Original American Flyer from 1953 only. Close to perfect, all original & fully intact, no rust. Patina & lettering very nice and bright. Cleaned and ready to go. May have a few very slight marks, but overall looks new. Very hard to find in this top condition. Very high collector quality. Reduced shipping cost for multiple items. Outside continental US, buyer pays actual postage.
    This is an outstanding example of the 1953 American Flyer 272 Glendale station and news stand. It was only made in 1953 and has the 1953 rare dark blue building and the bordered sign. This one is very clean. This one looks brand new. The newspapers, magazines and signs don't have the usual browning with age and they look brand new. All very crisp and snarp and new looking. The roof, house, signs, etc look new. The signs are nice and crisp. Even the Glendale sign looks great and is original. The paint is vibrant and new looking.  There isn't even any flaking on the back tape which is so common. The roof is perfect (very unusual). We don't think that this one was ever out on display or on a layout. These are so hard to find all complete and all original, but this one is and these dark blue 1953 versions are much rarer than the more common light blue 1952 version. Overall, this is a nice addition to any collection.  Please see photos to confirm condition.
