Description :
Space Patrol Party! Vintage Space Patrol commander helmet in plastic from the early 1950s. Space
Patrol logo on top with red stripe along side and ear holes. Open in both the
front and back. Note that this originally had an inflatable vest attached, but
it has been lost; thus the rubber seal/rubber band you see at the bottom of the
helmet. In good shape for its age with minimal yellowing of the plastic. Not
sure if shape has changed over time – the few others we found in national collections
also appeared to have this rather strange imperfect shape; however, we think this one
may have been exposed to heat at some point. This was definitely used - there is obvious wear on the plastic & some white paint drops - the latter could be easily removed with thinner - see last photo. (Interesting tidbit: these helmets were
very popular with kids; one anesthesiologist took one and modified it to
administer anesthesia to young patients with great success). Measures approx. 10” H x 13” W.
Original Space Patrol party items for a MCM space-age party! Would be a
terrific display set with the above helmet – great graphics and in excellent shape for age. Square paper plate measures approx. 8.5" square, set of 6 new paper cups in original packaging measure just over 3.5” H, and 5 paper napkins measure just
shy 7” square. All in unused excellent condition with only slight yellowing on napkins – please note that the photos of the napkin were done with the most
discolored napkin (on bottom in group picture); the rest are in better shape as far as coloring..
