Year of manufacture unknown.
Astronaut Alan B. Shepard.
Box obverse decorated by random space art (top) and advertising imagery for Mattel's "Major Matt Mason" action figure + accessories.
Studying how their mini diorama stage is constructed. Simple folds, no staples.
One of the figures had liberated himself from the browned adhesive used to fix the figures to their stage.
The correct stampings on the base of the spacemen indicating production by LP Toys in Hong Kong.
The round hatch on the Lunar Module illustration from pre-Apollo design where the Command Module would dock from the front.
One fascinating issue about the release is how Mercury and Gemini Program vehicles + early LM concept art are used rather than Apollo era spacecraft. This would suggest its manufacture prior to 1969.
