(Strombecker, 1955) A rare pair of rocket model kits based on the Walt Disney Studios featurette, Man In Space. Originally airing on Walt Disney's Disneyland television show in 1955, the episode became a standard in science education of the time, and was followed by text books, comic books, and toys such as these. The models, one of a satellite launcher and one of the RM-1 Rocketship, are both come in their original boxes. The kits appear to be nearly complete, however it is believed a few small pieces may be missing. Each box measures 5"x12" and 1.25" deep. The condition is very good with some shelf wear to the boxes.
