AD CLASSICS

Guillows

“Guillows” is a name that needs no introduction. It’s one many modelers have come to know and trust as the source of some of the most popular kits produced over the last 75 years. Well-known for their classic designs, the folks at Guillows are still hard at work today laser cutting some of their most famous WW I kits. This is the first Guillows ad ever to grace the pages of Model Airplane News. It appeared in the February 1933 issue.

America’s Hobby Center

If, over the past 50 years or so, you’ve ordered from a modeling catalog, chances are that you’re familiar with American Hobby Center—it remains one of the most well-known names in the industry today. This is its first ad, which appeared in the November 1945 issue of Model Airplane News.
