Default Estes “Follow Apollo”

Estes had a “Follow Apollo” promotion in during the Apollo lunar program. The idea being to launch a model rocket on the same day as a Saturn-V Apollo mission.

Seems like they mentioned it in Model Rocket News. But of the few scans of old issues I looked in, I do not see it there.

Can anyone post a link to anything in MRN or elsewhere about Estes “Follow Apollo”?

I did find a link to this brochure:



The rest of the pages to it are found on a link on this page: http://www.vintageestesrockets.com/...tron-markII.htm

But I do not recall seeing that brochure back then. I thought I saw Follow Apollo in MRN or some other Estes publication.

For that matter, does anyone have a better scan of that brochure? The scan is pretty small, have to enlarge it to 200% for most of the text to be readable.
