Received these two Wisconsin bluebills dating to the 1920's from Jim Bosanny (Wiz Boz). As you can see, they were in pretty rough condition and all paint had been stripped away. Bodies were tinder-dry balsa and pretty badly roughed up.
The plan was to do a "period" repaint and put some color back on the birds; but to do them justice, it was obvious that they needed to look like they'd gone through the wars that their condition and age indicated.
