May 1, 2014

To our friends, customers, suppliers and dealers:

The staff at Alpine Division Scale Models, L.L.C. is retiring and will close the manufacturing part of our business by the end of the 2014.

At this time we can still fill orders.

Most of the equipment at our factory is for sale. The rights to our products are also for sale.

We would like to thank everyone for the past 18 years, it has been fun.

In the future we will be setting up at various shows and hope to see you.

Sincerely,

Michael & Linda De Ghetto
A end of a era..Some of those Alpine kits been around since the 50s and was offered by Suydam..

IIRC (I'm too lazy to check :o ) the chemical company was metal and you assembled it by soldiering it together. I had the Swift packing company way back when and it was made of card stock with a block of wood for a dock.
