GOLDEN ASTRONAUT SUPER SET: WOW!


This is one great box of goodies, the Golden Astronaut Super Set from 1969.

This example was on Worthpoint. There have been a few.

I like the box art. Do you?

The moonscape is odd. It looks like an optical hand-painted illusion!

Anyone had or got this Super Set?


In my strange monster-mashed brain that moonscape reminds me the face on the cover of Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine #8!

Do you collect monster mags?

  1. No monster mags, but I do have a Super Set, Woodsy. :)

    The one shown in your post now resides in Las Vegas. The proud owner sent round the very same pics after he'd acquired it. ;)
