Army Tank
1956 & Re-Released in 1971
Revell Inc., Bunde, Germany.
This M-4 Sherman “Black Magic” tank was part of a family of armored vehicles and originally came with three figures: a commander and two infantry men. Hand assembles with each plastic part identified by a number and includes pieces that need to be cemented together. Founder of Revell Inc., Lewis H. Glaser had the “idea to build a true to scale car out of several plastic parts” in the 1940s and gave birth to the plastic model kits. The M-4 Sherman tank was first released in 1956 along with other military vehicles. However, these military vehicles never truly gained popularity, and oftentimes would disappear and then reappear over several years.
