Aurora Model Motoring HO Scale Slot Car Case and Accessories
This is a vintage Aurora Model Motoring carrying case and accessory set, likely dating from the 1960s. The set is housed in a molded tan plastic case with a hinged lid, featuring internal compartments for vehicle storage and tools. Included are five HO scale slot cars in varying colors and models: a metallic red coupe with 'Bandido' decals, a pale yellow coupe, a red open-cockpit racer with a driver figure, a white coupe with red racing stripes and 'Phantom' decals, and a metallic green coupe. The cars appear to be in good vintage condition with some light surface wear to the paint and decals. Accompanying the cars is a small glass bottle of 'Aurora Special Racing Oil No. 14-25' with its original white and red label, a sheet of unused water-slide decals featuring various racing team names and numbered circles, and a small printed instructional booklet or brochure. The plastic case shows some signs of age, including light scuffing and minor discoloration consistent with handling. This set represents a high-quality example of mid-20th-century hobbyist craftsmanship and is a desirable collector's item for slot car enthusiasts.
