Description, Collector Value ($US) and Notes...
This is a handmade plaster model of a 2-door GM old look city bus (possibly a TDH-4512) in Public Service Coordinated Transport (New Jersey) trim. It appears to be about HO scale. Unfortunately, I don't recall the name of the person who built it, but I bought this around 1994 at one of the Gathering of Buses shows. Have another one similar to this one, but unpainted and a little shorter.

These were Dave Roberts Miniature Transports products. I was one of Dave's best customers back in the eighties. He was based in Florida back then and eventually greatly reduced his stock choices, handing over the distribution duties to a guy from northern California. I have these in Red Arrow Lines colors and PTC colors...on my HO layout.
