Wonderful collection came up for sale on eBay from an estate of a WWII soldier shipped back shortly following the war. From the box stamps items seem to date from 1947/48. Here's my favorite the crocodile: https://rover.ebay.com/r...c%3Ag%3AgREAAOSwTM5Yzu0h also an early 310 in a rare box: https://rover.ebay.com/r...7%3Ag%3AUwwAAOSwuxFYzuEN I know my uncle had one that he sold and it fetched over a $1,000. Enjoy! Paul

Hi Steven, So it is at least original. There are no CCS from these early years which are undamaged. Also the model in the Märklin museum is rebuild with a Ritter- chassis. These models should be seen like shards from antique earthenware. Unusable but still collectable and valuable in some cases. Regards Markus

There is also a new production frame out of the US from this seller which appears to be high quality zinc like the original: https://rover.ebay.com/r...ig_cvip%3Dtrue%26rt%3Dnc Paul

Strange ad. Also, I feel like investing $28,000 in a 1940's crocodile frame mold does not seem like the most profitable of business plans! But thank goodness someone is keeping the old girls running...

Joined: 03/04/2007(UTC) Posts: 1,605		Overall I agree too the prices were very low for all the Marklin that he sold on that day. With replaced frames costing maybe $500 the loco should still be worth at least $3,000 in the box. A mint-in-box (replaced or original parts) would be worth over $5,000. Paul
