Tinman Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Yeah, I didn't think the Atomic Flash gun dated to the 50's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 That's the problem with these catalog breakers, they destroy the context. Must be "1950s". The gun's patent is dated 1953. This ad is probably later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fineas J. Whoopie Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Actually the 1950's makes sense to me. Back in those days there were two costumes you would see kids running around in. Either a spaceman or a cowboy. It was the heyday of the space serial and the western on TV. Not to mention the use of the word Atomic in marketing was a 1950's thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
