Blog reader Ferryman has sent in these great clear shots of his German T in a Circle Saturn 5 Rocket from the 60's. The logo and model number (425), top picture, appears on the underside of the rocket but not the box. There are two other versions of this toy that I'm aware of, the Apollo X and Apollo 11, made by a variety of manufacturers including T in a Circle. I remember passing one up years ago at my favourite little vintage toy kiosk in Whitby - I didn't know what it was at the time! Got one now though!
Saw one at the Isle of Wight Toy Museum in Godshill last month too, along with a really fine collection of mint boxed JR21 Anderson toys. Well worth a visit!
