American Flyer 353 "AMERICAN FLYER CIRCUS" loco & tender in great condition with the original "number stamped" engine wrap. This 4-6-2 locomotive was produced only in 1950-51. This red painted loco & tender with the yellow lettering is in really really nice condition. All the yellow lettering is flawless. The underside of both pieces is excellent (see the last two pictures). The original eng wrap is the way I got it years ago, with the... bold stamp "353 CIRCUS LOCO & TENDER" (see the close-up). I just bench tested this loco & tender and got the loco to light-up nice & bright, but couldn't get the loco to run. I think with a good engine cleaning, it will run nice (years & years of sitting in a display cabinet didn't help). I am selling my best circus pieces (starting with this loco) and all my rare wooden flats with rare "blue" animal loads in the next week or so. Please look at all the pictures so you can see condition for yourself. I ship using USPS "Priority Mail" so you receive fast shipping with insurance included. I also combine shipping to save you money. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
