BAR Nostalgia:
The 1969 Estes Catalog

Catalog cover Back cover I've scanned the 1969 Estes catalog for your enjoyment. This catalog was the first that included a wonderful technical information section, crammed full of useful information about model rocketry. I've moved that manual to its own page with a PDF file so you can print a copy for yourself. However, images of the manual are also included here with this catalog.

I want to thank Bill Faulkner for sending me the catalogs. Thanx, Bill!
