It is always great to see these store displays, whose job it was to sell toys. Companies no longer make these, and some of the magic has gone. Thank you for giving us all a chance to see your collection.
I just loved these big box displays as a kid. I had the Cape Canaveral set for xmas about 1968 and the box was so big, I could sit in it. The toys are deceptively simple construction, but its all about the design and being able to shoot them rockets! cheers Will, thanks for taking me right back! Bill
