Dear Bernhard and the rest of the Vernian Gang,
                I would be very interested in obtaining a copy of the
paper model of the ALBATROSS. In an earlier post I pointed out that a
paper model of Verne's Moonship is also available. During me searches
for references to Jules Verne models over the Internet I came across
this reference for a paper model of Verne's Moonship at Delta 7 Studio's
web site: http://www.delta7studios.com/retro%20rockets.htm Check it
out. You will also find paper models of other classic spacecraft from
the 1940's and 1950's as well as real spacecraft from the dawn of the
Space Age.

Models include:

                Von Braun Saturn Shuttle, Bonestal inspired Lunar
Tractor,

                   Rocketship Orion, Rocketship Polaris, Space Ark,

                      Jules Verne's Projectile Coach Moonship,

                     1936 Flash Gordon ship, TWA Lunar Liner,

                  Retro Rockets Ray Gun, The Icarus, Flying Saucer,

                              The Mystery Rocket

          Mercury, Gemini, Apollo, Space Shuttle and X-Plane Models.

The full range of paper models can be found at Delta 7 Studio's Main
Paper Model page at: http://www.delta7studios.com/modelsmain.htm. The
company also has a model range called The Nautical Legacy of Robert
Fulton that includes a model of Fulton's Submarine Nautilus. But, for
some reason a link to the page is not available. I hope some of you find
this information interesting and helpful.


Many thanks again,

Yours truly,

Alex Michael Bonnici
