| Brand: NOMURA | Theme: OUTER SPACE |
| Featured Refinements: Space Gun | Year: 1950 |
Two tin space-themed guns. Approximately 3 3/4" long.
Tin "ray-gun". Beautiful blue background with images of speeding rockets, planets, stars and astronaut in space suit. Guns feature a "streamline" design with a bold red fin atop the gun (see photos).
These guns do not appear to ever have been used. The silver triggers stick but when the trigger moves I think there was supposed be a sparking effect but that's not working. Can't figure out why but I'll leav...e it to the new owner to figure out the answer. I would suggest that the guns will serve simply as a colorful and fanciful tin space toy and leave it at that. Excellent all original condition with no repairs or repaints.
These guns come complete with original boxes. The boxes have an imaginative label that evokes the popular 1950's conception of what space would be like in the future, including speeding rockets and a fierce looking robot alien firing a ray-gun. The logo of the Japanese toy maker Nomura is printed in the lower left corner being the letters "TN" within a diamond.
Great addition to a collection of 1950's Japanese tin toys or as an accent to a display of mid-century space memorabilia!
