In 1993 I bought most of Cy’s collection, around 300 models. Over time I have sold a few. During his lifetime Cy made some models that he sold to other collectors (before I bought his collection). I know at least one collector who got a couple of his models before I bought the collection. Cy kept one model, and after his death I inquired about it. I was told that the family wanted to keep it.

Cy did not scratch build models en masse for sale like Ed Antin, Ron Hughes, and some others did. He built almost exclusively for his own collection.
