DURHAM TARHEEL AMERICAN SPACE TOYS

 
For years I've thought that the two American toy companies Durham and Tarheel worked hand in hand. I'm now beginning to think that they were almost one in the same company. Look at their logos above. The globes and the white semi circles around them look almost identical apart from the minor detail that the globe contour lines are opposites.
 
 
Further evidence are the number of toys brandishing either Durham and Tarheel logo's. Pictured are those with SWORD/ SPACEX/ ANDERSON connections: the Space Glider and two NOVA's.

 
 
 
Readers with brightly coloured space toys like these should double check that they haven't also got a Durham toy on their hands.
