Old Scratch Made Tin Structure with Crackled Paint nuts and bolts including to find out thatI love a piece of tabletop architecture made from scratch of tin, and like the minimalist form of this one, perhaps meant to represent a train station. Nice lines and nice interplay of those matte gray painted square windows and the much crackled dark plum paint on the rest. Plus these hand drawn crosses on the rear view windows. 11 7 8" x 5 5 8" x 5 1 4" t and in good structural shape, with crackling to the paint as evident.
