Model Rocketry: America's Hobby in the Cold War 1960-1980

Model Rocketry: America's Hobby in the Cold War 1960-1980 - Alexander Procyk

Model Rocketry: America's Hobby in the Cold War 1960-1980

"Space, the final frontier!" These words, first broadcast in 1966, caught the mood of the nation. The period between 1960 and 1980 was the golden age of space flight, and the height of space mania in popular culture. The space age produced countless space-related toys and collectibles; especially interactive were flying model rockets.

This is a beautifully illustrated survey of vintage model rockets, with particular emphasis on those produced by Estes. The 80-plus examples featured are survivors, all of which were built and flown in period. Full-color photos of the preserved rockets are accompanied by anecdotes on construction and flight performance, along with examples of packaging and catalog imagery.

The models featured in the book include many famous subjects from real life and science fiction such as the space shuttle, Starship Enterprise, SR-71 Blackbird, X-Wing fighter, V-2, Saturn V, and many more.

This is a nostalgic gift for children of the space age, and also an inspiration for the budding model rocketeers of the 21st century.
