Is "The Show Modelling" still around?

I saw their name several times in Tony Greenland's book from about 20 years ago. I did an internet search, but got hits about fashion model shows.

If they went out of business, did some else take over their line of products?

Thanks. Lee

Blast from the past Lee! I don't think Show has been around for quite awhile now. I have a few of their products hanging about; what was it you were looking for specifically? If I have it it is yours.

Cheers,
Rick

Yeah I built one tank about 20 years ago and just started another, but I remember being blown away by Tony Greenland's articles in Fine Scale Modeler back in the 1990s.

I just bought a couple of sets of The Show Opel Blitz wheels and tires. I'm not sure what else they made, so I'm not really looking or anything else right now.

Btw that one model I built so long ago was a T-80 with ERA, following tips in an article from FSM. I was a private in the Army and our Battalion Intel Captain paid me to build it for him. I was an M1A1 tanker, but spent some time in the Intel shop.

Thanks. Lee
