This question concerns the decal stripe pattern on the upper stage.
This was never a kit so we have to figure it out.
Look at the images I've listed.
The one picture that's titled Thor Able second stage I believe should be the third stage.
The decal appears, to me, as shown to be only on one side.
I actually think it's on both sides of that stage with the upside down Y between the two vertical "UNITED STATES" decal.
One picture of round 219 shows the "Y" on the left of the UNITED STATES.
The picture listed as "second stage" shows it on the right.
To me it seems like a roll pattern. The last image I posted is my drawing of it.
The second question on the roll pattern I posted is the tips of the "Y".
It looks to me like they come to a point at the bottom just under the "S".
Does it come to a point or is it flat on the bottom?
