WOW!  These are replicas of the K&O Models, Inc., and Fleetline Marine display stands that were used to sell toy outboard motors in the 1950s, only MUCH better!  The original stands were made of cheap cardboard, had elastic bands to hold the motors, and were hung from the ceiling.  They helped sell toy outboard motors in hobby shops, toy stores and outboard motor dealerships.  The original stands appear to be extinct.  In all the years that I've been collecting I know of no one who has an original K&O display stand and I've never seen one for sale anywhere, even on Ebay.

These stands are made much better than the original.  They are roughly two feet high, made from strong Fiberboard with wood backing, have 3 aluminum motor holders to attach your K&O outboard motors to, have an adjustable metal stand so you can use it as a counter top display, and have vibrant color from the original artwork that was created for this project.  They are a real eye catcher and conversation starter.  Even the original wording is on the stand and in the correct places!  You will not be disappointed! There were only 5 of these made so they will be very rare and at a price of only $190 each plus shipping they are a steal!  

The motors will be well packed in a custom made shipping carton.  The shipping cost will be based on your zip code.  (The toy outboard motors hanging from the stand in the pictures are for display purposes only and not included).
