Vintage American Flyer 249 Tunnel in its Original Box

Description

Vintage American Flyer 249 Tunnel in its Original Box.
This 11 ½” long tunnel was offered from 1947 through 1956.
This is the earlier version in which the tunnel was constructed of fiber.
The tunnel was decorated with a winding road and red house.
This tunnel appears to me to be in Very Good condition and the original box appears to be in Excellent condition but please refer to the pictures to determine the condition.

Thank you for your interest. Before placing a bid or making an offer, please read the following:
Photos tell much more than words. I make an effort to include well lighted photos that are bright and clear  that show many different angles. The photos show much detail and are the most important part of the description. I will also provide a reasonable detailed description of what I have found through research as an addition to the photos. Between the two you should be able to ascertain what you are bidding on. Should you have any questions or need additional information, please ask in advance before submitting a bid or making an offer.
