    Description

    This listing is for an original plastic test model manufactured by Douglas Aircraft during the creation of the S-IVB rockets they made for NASA's Apollo missions (the Saturn rocket). The model came from an employee of Boeing for 35 years who in their retirement collected a huge amount of space items
    (he bought mostly from space auctions in the 90s through 2011)
    . The only other example I can find sold at Bonhams about a decade ago. (There is a chance the owner bought it form that auction, he was purchasing from various space auctions for the last 20 years of their life). There wasn't any paperwork with this piece that I could find.
    The model was unfortunately stored poorly and has some wear. There are some blue peg pieces missing from one end and and one of the small wheels has come detached (each wheel is made of 2 pieces, one wheel is missing a piece). I took a close up photo of both areas, as well as the entire model. Please see all photos for condition and feel free to ask any questions.
    ***Sales tax of 7.75% is added to all California transactions. Please be aware that some other states have recently required that sales tax is collected. This is automatically added to your transaction by eBay and they send it directly to your state government. We, the seller, have no control over this portion of the invoice. Thank you for understanding.***
