1952 - X-100 Space Scout, X-200 Space Ranger, X-300 Space Cruiser by Pyro

The seller's description:

I found the original 1952 8 1/2" X 11" Pyro Plastics order sheets many years ago and must have made these COPIES at that time. This was part of a package that Pyro Plastics sent to Hobby Shops and Dimestores to promote their new line of Space Toys! Color copies include the X-200 Space Ranger Ship, the X-300 Space Cruiser Ship, and the X-100 Space Scout. Red copy Pyro Plastics Corp. sheet lists prices for Catalog #131 (X-300 Space Cruiser). Imagine paying $3.96 a dozen now!! The other page that is interesting is the Display Material Page where a store could get a group of advertising pennants or posters. Shows the various "Pyrotomic" Toys like the Space Gun, Space Ships, etc. Neat group that will be sold as COPIES not to confuse anyone. I accept PayPal and other forms of payment. Buyer pays $2.95 1st class shipping. Thanks!

This guy's been listing these for a while. Great information!

 

I would positively KILL for those display items -- the streamers, the banners, etc..... Man, I can't even tell you how amazing that stuff is. Has anyone ever seen them in person? Or know anyone who has them?
