Perhaps if you posted this on one of the Model Railroader forums, you might have better luck.  My dad had a Tenshodo GP7 (brass) that he presumably bought at about the same time.

Vintage Tenshodo Info needed!
Posted by TeddyB on Saturday, November 3, 2007 4:02 PM
Hi ALL!
I just got ahold of some Vintage Tenshodo Brass stuff, and not brass. I even have a Vintage Transformer, never used, cord still colied! I was told that this collection was bought while a Soldier was in Korea. It's about 50 years old! Does anyone here know of a site that specailizes in Vintage Tenshodo?

Did they also make wooden kits? I have kits that are wood, with some metal. All in plain white boxes.


ANY info would be great!


Many thanks,Ted
