Description :

Rex Mars Planet Patrol Spacemen & Planet Patrol puzzles.

Planet Patrol puzzles from 1952. Manufactured by Jaymar Company of New York. All the elements of a good space story of this period are in both: spaceships, explosions, astronauts in barren planetscapes, and planets in the distance. Color is still bright with great contrast. Condition is ok  – some wear around puzzle pieces and on yellow border – please last see photos for the most egregious. Measure 11” H x 14” W.

2 sets of 4 Planet Patrol Spacemen from the 1950s. While all appear to be the spacemen made for Planet Patrol by Marx, they are definitely different. The gold ones (on the left in the lead picture) are of a harder plastic with no give, while the 4 on the right are slightly flexible. The original spacemen for this series were made in the 1950s with some reissued in the 1990s - we think these may be examples of each. See photos for detail. No maker mark visible on either set. Measure approx. 2.75” H.
