Thanks for posting this! The RRS broke the ground for our hobby. It is great to see a reference to them.

I have a basement full of old Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, Mechanics Illustrated, and simiar magazines from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. Several of them mention the RRS. I have seen pictures of their range and other pictures of this tower, but I have never come across this particular article before. Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. Every article, every photo from those early days of rocketry is like striking gold for those of us with a historic bent.

Now I need to go check the antique stores to try to find a copy of this particular issue!

The posted picture is great! I may be older than dirt, but I can still appreciate a photo of a pair of fine looking rockets like these. Yessir! Fine looking rockets!
