Don's 1/2 Size Wakefield -- Plans were in latest MAXFAX,


 
It is from the plan of 1949 Swedish Wakefield by Arne Blomberg.




A note from Dave Mitchell----
"My 1/2 Wakefield is the "1939 Canadian Wakefield",  built from a new kit that Dave Niedzielski of EasyBuilt Models is putting out for the event.  It's a scaled down version of his kit # FF-08.  The tissue is EasyBuilt, though the decals are my own contrivance."
