I have a set of six launch complex fragments (pads 5, 14, 19, 26, 34, and pad 19 white room). All are mounted on 8.5 x 5.5" informational cards signed by Rick Boos and Ken Havekotte. All cards are numbered.

My questions: When were these initially issued and how many were made?

The card sets were put out sometime in the early to mid 80's and there were only 200 sets ever made. I had intentions of doing additional cards for some of the other pads such as Atlas pads #11 and #12 but never got around to it because of book and TV related projects. I did all the research on the pads for this project and collected and cut up the pieces used and Ken helped with the finance of the project. If you have any questions feel free to call me at 419-586-9600.
