This is another of the small 727 airliners with the awkward tail wheel.
This one has no maker's mark other than 'Made in Japan'. I remember that when I was actively collecting these, I was on the lookout for heritage airlines like Pan Am, TWA, and United (which is still in business).
Sending all these photos to you makes me want to re-engage my collecting again and see what other airlines are available for these little gems!
Enjoy!

Another tin beauty! I remember PanAm and TWA being the “big” airline brands in toys and models back then, with American and United running a close second. You have a remarkable collection of tin airliners, and yes I am insanely jealous! SFZ
