Wow, I can't believe this eBay item sold for $110!

You can (could?) get brand new ones at the Space Center in Huntsville.

I should have held on to the DOZENS that I must have had back in the 60's.

I've seen them sell recently in the $15-20 range, so this one caught me by surprise.

Yeah - I must have had 25 of them, as the Gulf station was down the street. They were very accurate for cardboard paper cutouts. Why did I have so many... you ask?

The station was closing and the owner KNEW I wanted them... I only have three now (sigh!).

Hey guys - can we recreate these without a big legal hassle?
