Regarding end of
production History of BUSCH
says: "In 1962/63 sales of the aircraft models stagnated. The
moulds were sold to a froreign country" (my translation
from German).
It is common knowledge that the buyer was Lindberg.
The series of aircraft models and kits is no more present in the
Busch 1962/63 catalogue, so I stipulate that production ended in
1962.
I have not yet a Lindberg catalog of 1962 and 1963
so I cannot determine when dsitribution was
launched by Lindberg. In any
case the licence produced Busch kits appear in the Lindberg
1964/65 catalog.
A doublecheck: the Busch kits do not yet appear in the
German and US Lindberg 1960 catalogue. |
