Description: A pair of original vintage Meccano #8 double angle strips (7-hole main face with right-angled end flanges) finished in classic mid-century green enamel. These structural brackets are vital hardware components for creating rigid 3D frame joints, tying side plates together, and supporting motor or axle assemblies across vintage models.

Condition: Fair / Restoration Grade. Both pieces retain substantial green enamel paint, though both exhibit visible play wear, surface scuffing, and localized rust/oxidation—particularly along the spine of the left piece and around the lower bent flange of the right piece. The pressed-steel profiles remain straight and unbent.
Estimated Value: R15 – R30 (for the pair)
