Decanter, Airplane Model, Lindbergh, King Collection
A hollow gray airplane with a brown nose and black and yellow wheels held on by screws. "Spirit of St. Louis" in black lettering appears on the nose above a series of small flags. Three horizontal lines are painted black on the top of the wing. "N-X-211" has been painted black on the top and bottom of the wing at opposite ends. The nose cone and propeller detach from the nose of the plane with a small cork attached to the inside of the cone. A hole at the front of the nose allows the decanter to be filled and the cork on the cone to be inserted to seal the bottle.
