Antique aeroplane by Ernst Plank

Sourced by Harold and Charles from Germany this is an extremely rare antique aeroplane celebrating the first flight cross channel flight of early aviator Louis Blériot who made the first flight across the English Channel in a heavier-than-air aircraft, on 25 July 1909. This toy was made by Tin Toy maker extraordinaire Ernst Plank around 1910 in Nuremberg, Germany.

This amazing piece is hard to find if not near impossible but H&C were lucky enough to source from a collector in Germany.
