Vintage Airport Board
This heavy cardboard, folding airport runway play mat came with Remco's Voice Control Kennedy Airport, introduced in 1968. I have had this one since I was little. I also have the entire boxed set stored away. It had a plastic terminal that contained a turntable and tone arm to play small records. The kid could listen to the ATC and effectively manage arrivals + departures.
Did any of you have one of these back then?

I remember having that as a kid, and had non-stop fun with it. That picture really brought back some great memories!

Re: Vintage Airport Board
I remember when I was a kid living in Alaska, my Dad had to fly back to NY for his Fathers Funeral and bought me the Kenner guirder airport set.
Like this Kenner Girder & Panel 72080 International Airport - eBay (item 130192751729 end time Jan-30-08 19:53:19 PST) |
