1946 Buck Rogers Atomic Pistol Advertisement
Here’s a fantastic find: a Buck Rogers ad from 1946 in which Gimbels is offering the Atomic Pistol for only $1 ($1.98 if you also get the holster). Ever since I bought a copy of Blast Off* a decade or so ago (reading post here) I’ve kept my eyes on the old Buck Rogers toys of the past century, and seeing this classic ad sure makes it even more tempting to chase down some of those toys. I won’t, though, because I realistically would have no way to properly display them and the prices are way higher than I’m willing to pay.
Because we can, here are also two other ads for the toy; see the-wanderling.com for more info on these old Buck Rogers toys.
