Mystery ship at local outdoor fair
Posted by sharkbait on Saturday, May 23, 2015 4:18 PM

Hi 

Found this at a local weekend market.

It looked lonely and unappreciated. 

For 7 $ CDN thought it needed a new home.

Anyone got a clue - Emden perhaps? 

Anyone got a clue.

I think, looking closely, that there were mast and turrets that were broken off and someone filed those areas smooth.

It looks like it could be Emden or Dresden. How big is the model? It looks like it could be 1//1200 scale or 1/1250.  If so parts might be available from Superior (Alnavco).
