    ~ BUCK ROGERS ~
    WYANDOTTE AIRFLOW ROCKET
    PRESSED STEEL ORIGINAL
    with Near Mint WHEELS!!!
    THE FIRST
    BUCK ROGERS STEEL ROCKET TOY EVER MADE! -
    PRE-DATES BUCK ROGERS TIN-LITHO GRAPHIC ROCKETS!!!
    This Toy was meticulously well cared for since it was given to it's original owner in his childhood.
    This is the most extraordinary example of this Rare Early Buck Rogers Pressed Steel Toy that I have seen.
    Most have a dull finish through years of exposure to dust - this one stored in a sealed glass display case for almost all of it's nearly 90 years has bright, high gloss, luminous color.
    Helpful Trivia: I've been told that the 1st Run of this Buck Rogers Airflow Rocket features a Green Bottom and the 2nd run which followed in quick succession features a purple bottom.

    ~Flaws/Imperfections: Minor~
    Although it's impeccable storage has greatly benefited the luminosity of this Beautiful Example of this classic space toy
    and it's wheels are in incredible non-corroded condition (one visible scratch on bottom of right front wheel),
    it does feature flaws common of the manufacturing process, such as a smudge on the upper rear fin,
    some rubs and light chipping (common for this toy)
