Soviet clock kit
I recently got two Soviet clock kits from the late 70s. I will probably build one of them in the near future. Nothing special, but I like the simplicity of it and the old stenciled manual.

A friends father got them in the late 70s on a business trip. They were intended for his kids but deemed to complicated and they have been in storage since then. He was clearing them out now, asked my friend if I was interested and I got them a couple of weeks ago.
The hands are wrapped in the paper in the bottom right and there is some sort of oil in the plastic container. |
