The Space Taxi; Monogram, 1959. description: One of Willy Ley's 4 conceptual design
model kits for Monogram and among the most collectible of space toys. This fine

so...looks great as it is. The original tray cello is present, but it is in
tatters.

item: Project Sword Robe Force No. 1 ; Century 21
toys, 1967 description: Gerry
Anderson...`nuff said. This great range of HK produced space toys is not so
common in the USA, so here's a nice opportunity for the collector. The set is
complete...manual with some browning/freckling, ship with peeling but complete
decals, and the almost always missing badge. The box is a mess, but could be
cleaned up enough for display. It's complete with inserts. Click on the image
(left) to see it all!

item:
Space Orb kaleidoscope; 1960's. description: "Space Orb, eye in the sky", although
you won't see anything like the sky when you look into it. Instead,
you'll see aliens from Venus, Mercury, Mars, etc. (be careful of Uranus). The
aliens are, of course, more comical than frightening, making this a toy for all
ages. The rocket styling completes the package, it's a winner all around. If
you have to have a kaleidoscope, this is the one.
size:
toy 8.25" h, 4" at widest condition:
C-8 with scuffs to body price:
$35.00
