A small camera icon next to the ESM stock number indicates a larger photo has been added. Eventually there will be a photo of every release that has been offered to date, so that all variations are documented. Click on the camera icon to view.

Our website features photographs of every ESM product released from our first offering in 1987 forward, as well as a description and brief history of each item including reporting marks, date of last service, date of the reference photograph if known, release date of the model, list price and availability. We update our site regularly as new products are introduced and current products are discontinued.

Subsequent releases of an item will have various printing detail differences than previous releases, making them unique in more than just having a different set of reporting marks. When the release of an item differs from the general photograph on an item page, the camera icon will be present to allow viewing of the specific item release.

Our products are grouped by the categories in the menu above. Hover the mouse pointer over the Products option to see a dropdown menu of the available product lines, and click on the product line desired. The general page of the Product Line will appear. Hover over the Product Line link to see a dropdown menu of the items in that product line. Our Specialty Items product lines are arranged in similar fashion, and contain our non-prototypical commemorative releases as well as our high-end Sovereign Modeler Series™ line of products.
