Back In The Day, Part 8: More Stickers!

A couple of weeks ago on The Model Rocket Building Blog, Chris Michielssen wrote a post containing some pictures of old model rocket stickers that the manufacturers used to send with orders.
I also have a number of these, except most of them are stuck to my old range boxes and are rather battle scarred and weather-worn. 
Here are some pix of my range box which I am using now. 

 
During the 30+ years that I was away from rocketry, this served as the around-the-house tool box.  Of course, now that I am a BAR, it has returned to being a range box.  Most of the stickers on it were put there in 1974-1976. All are from either Estes or AVI.  Also on top of the box is a NAR sticker, a well-faded Estes Aerospace club sticker, a flag, and a couple of random Space Shuttle stickers..


Another tool box I used back in the day features more EAC stickers. For many years after rocketry, this box held my electronics tool kit, and is now my fishing tackle box.


Also, I have this notebook with more stickers in the front cover pouch.  These well-preserved copies were never used and are still attached to their backing paper.
