Estes Ad from Boy's Live Magazine, 1965






On the NAR Facebook page, Mike Black shard this old Estes ad from a 1965 Boys Life magazine.
It's got some typical Estes rockets from that time, the Mark, Sky Hook, Wac Corporal and Cobra.











The ad should say: "Illustrations are not to scale." That's either one big Wac Corporal or one small rocketeer. The Wac Corporal was just under 12" tall.
Take a closer look and you'll notice something else. That rocket boy has breasts!
I'm not making a judgement, it just looked strange.
