17/6 in 1955 would be £18.18 today....
I remember the Frog Vulcan B1 and Victor B1 bombers in 1/96th but not the Valiant which I somehow never bought and I don't recall the airliners at all.
I also remember Chris Trace on Blue Peter with a 1/72 Gannet kit which he fitted with an electric motor for RTP; he actually got it to work!
