Ten years ago I corresponded with the curator of the online Stingray Memorabilia Museum. He believed that JR21 had produced a Nuclear Aircraft Carrier like the one that appears in the first Stingray Annual. He thought he had a photograph of the toy but couldn't find it.
Can anyone else verify the existence of this toy - JR21 or otherwise or at least email a picture of the said Aircraft Carrier from the Stingray annual?
I am unable to locate the online Stingray Museum these days. Seems to be off-line?
how many Stingray annuals were made ? Ive got the one with the Titan strip, where he builds his underwater city after being exiled. dont know what number it is.
ReplyDeleteThere were two, ©1965, which features two WASP officers watching Stingray, and ©1966, which has a dynamic illustration of Stingray with explosions behind it - both covers, I'm fairly sure, being the work of the late Ron Embleton. I'm fairly sure the one you mean is the second, the Titan strip/history being drawn by Ron Turner.
ReplyDeleteAgain, if you click on my name, you'll go to an illustrated index of the 1960s Anderso-related anuals for clarification.
ahhh - im fairly sure i have both annuals, my memory is going to pieces! Looks like i need to crawl around in the attic again!
ReplyDeletechecked out the stingray annuals and the sub air carrier is in the one i had, but its the same Eric Eden pic that i posted earlier that Kim gave me from the Stingray comic.
