Three model vehicles intended for static display, consisting of one airplane and two automobiles. The airplane is a representation of the Ryan NYP Spirit of St. Louis, constructed from metal with a silver-tone finish. It features an engine-turned pattern on the nose cowling, a multi-cylinder radial engine, and a two-blade propeller. Inscriptions include Spirit of St. Louis in black script on the cowling, NX-211 on the upper wing surface, and N-X-211 RYAN NYP on the rudder. The tail assembly includes simulated wire rigging. The first automobile is a large-scale plastic model of a Jaguar E-Type Series I Roadster finished in red. It features a detailed interior with a three-spoke steering wheel and dashboard instrumentation, wire-spoke wheels, and license plates reading MNE 690. The second automobile is a small-scale die-cast model of a 1950s style convertible, finished in light blue with a white interior and whitewall tires.
