The Corsair flies again thanks to Retro 51!
Here’s the newest member of Retro 51’s Antique Metalsmith series honoring the classic aircraft of WWII. The Vought F4U Corsair was the first American-made flyer to reach 400 miles per hour in level flight. Its distinctive features made it a favorite for outperforming the Japanese during World War II. The solid metal Corsair Tornado has acid etched “rivets” along the barrel; the body is printed with the plane’s markings and trimmed with gunmetal accents.

Sad news, Friends... Our physical store in Biltmore Village has been completely destroyed. It's been devastating for us and has been emotionally hard to process or even get our minds around. The flood waters basically swirled all the way to the ceilings, literally smashing everything to bits and leaving everything coated in toxic mud.
During our transition we have set up a "Current Offerings" category where we will be adding new items daily. We're hoping this will help us bridge the gap during our transition. So please keep checking back as you will find something new each time you stop by.
If any of you feel inclined, we have set up a Go Fund Me site for donations. Here is the link to that: https://www.gofundme.com/f/join-us-in-restoring-a-beloved-local-haven
