Default Estes kit facecards?

I'm not sure what the correct term for these things are but does anyone collect these things?
Just the cards, nothing else.
Excuse the slightly used ones.

Yes. I keep the facer cards from kits I have built.

Here's one.

I'd love to have the Andromeda card. What do you want for it?

I USED to... Until I got too many and threw out about a 6 inch thick stack of them back in the late 80's... I regret that a bit now.

I wouldn't mind having the Atlantis and Patriot, but only if Bill doesn't want them.

Fine with me.
I have some other stuff I an dump off to 'Fishhead's Home for crashed, smashed, unfinished and unwanted rocket stuff'
Similar in content to a NARAM lost & found box but without the competition models.

Love the avatar!
Happens to be my favorite band of all time as well.
Only one song in their entire arsenal that I don't care for.
"Has anyone seen the bridge?"

More boxes of stuff to sort through for giveaways.

Chris

No, the Andromeda is the only one that really trips anything for me. I'd like to see if I can find a frame for it. That's the kind of thing I'd like to put on the wall in my room if my wife is really serious about drywalling and insulating it.
Thank you, Chris. I'll send you my info.

Got a box in the mail this weekend. Chris, your idea of a few tubes and mine are a little different. That's a bunch of tubes!

Thanks for the face cards and tubes.
