I used to visit this shop in Lemont, Ill. some years ago. They made and sold O structure kits. I just got in one, a box of sticks, with no instructions, "The Old Mill". Is there a snowball's chance anybody has this kit with instructions that could be copied?

Reminds me of the commemorative kit that Campbell's Scale Models offered NMRA attendees to a national-or-regional convention many, many, many moons ago....
The small red plaid box contained a solid block of wood with a simple instruction sheet that said, in effect, ...'Carve away everything you don't want to leave the model of your choice!'
Now, mind you, I wasn't there for that tongue-in-cheek opportunity, but the reports of this offering from attending old phellow pharts of the hobby like me were legion for years after. So I have no doubt it's not what we now call "Fake Gnus".
Whatever....

The seller emailed and said they opened new box to photo,and there were no instructions in it.... Looks like a scratch build...I remember reading about the Campbell's carving lesson years ago
