No better place to start when admiring these toys than consulting the Official Manual, which came with the Century 21 vehicles during the late 1960's. Designed to be a guide to 'real' vehicles in the Sword Corporation, the Manual is made of thin crinkly light brown paper, strangely pleasing to leaf through and has pictures and descriptions of all the big guns - Zero X, Booster Rocket, Dyna Soar as well as the fabulously named Nuclear Ferry and the Moonbase Playset. Only the Scouts don't get a mention ( more on those cute fella's later).
