Tootsie Toy Vintage 1950's Diecast "Shooting Star" P-80 Airplane #485004

Doesn't fit in the treasure box but it sells for about $8-$12 on eBay in this condition. I really love this style of jet, any of you old-timers ever fly a full size one of these? : )

That is awesome.

Attach some fishing line and hang it from the ceiling.

very cool tootsie, and in great condition. a couple of towns south of me used to have an old Shooting Star on display as you entered town, but several years ago they removed it. Probably sold for scrap. I miss seeing it
