description : Rare and large vintage metal travel agent display model of a Sabena Belgian World Airlines Douglas DC-7C by Raise-Up Rotterdam, Holland, circa 1956-1960.

condition : Good vintage condition. The heavy metal fuselage and wings retain their original paint and Sabena decals with a beautiful authentic patina (yellowing). Remarkably, all four original plastic propellers are still intact, showing some natural age-related hardening but remaining structurally present. Includes a non original metal stand.

size : Wingspan approx. 45 cm - Length approx. 40 cm (Scale 1:72)

Step back into the Golden Age of Aviation with this museum-quality display model. Manufactured by the legendary Raise-Up metalworks in Rotterdam, this Douglas DC-7C was the pride of Sabena’s long-haul fleet. This is not a toy, but a professional promotional model used in travel agencies to advertise transatlantic flights. It features the iconic "Seven Seas" livery. Finding an original Raise-Up model with all its propellers still attached is becoming increasingly difficult, making this a centerpiece for any serious aeronautica collection.

maker’s mark : Marked on the belly of the aircraft and/or the stand: "Manufactured by Raise-Up, Rotterdam, Holland".
