The backdrop for this set measures an impressive 23″ by 15″. The backdrop city and sky are curved in opposite directions to give it an oval shape which does not show in the picture. The cannon can fire the two darts and the two blue spaceship darts at the backdrop or the two target ships. The cannon has a periscope mirror to line up the shot. This set was produced sometime between 1953 and 1957.

Hello,
First time I’ve seen your site. I’m looking for a Rocket Launch set. Actually I only need the backdrop from this set.
Let me know if you have this or perhaps know anyone who’d be interested in selling.
Hello Jeff,
These sets are very hard to come by and Will set you back $350 to $400. I don’t know anyone who would break one up. Your best bet is to keep watching EBay. Expect to wait awhile for one to come up.
