Great to see, very nice presented. Hopefully in a few years I can do the same. Going to need big cabinets.

Thank you George for sharing your great display of early Superfast models. The models are in great shape and you have several very hard to find variations. The display cases show off your collection very well.

Different collectors use different descriptions for grouping the early Superfast models.
Can you tell us how you define 1st issue vs 2nd issue?

Thank you
Happy hunting!

Hello Kurt thank you for your post, as for the 1st issue I simply
assume that the 1st issues that came out and the transitional ones.

I only have a few 2nd issued ones that came in the type "G" boxes.
So that I could complete my collection of "G" boxes.

Hello again Kurt, I am sorry but the heading for 2nd issue Superfast is wrong.

They are the2nd half of the 1st issue making a total of 1-75 models sorry for the
miss understanding my fault for not having the correct headings.

Thank you for clarifying George!

I don’t know the Superfast range very well; I focus mainly on the the transitional modules. There are a few transitional models in the second listing so I was confused.
You have built a great collection and the display is ideal!

Happy hunting!
