Yep, I decided to pick up these on ebay this week. I had wanted some Pyrotomic whistles for the last 4 years only to be outbid time and time again. The Spec Toy whistle is interesting too though. When you hold your finger over the holes near the nose of the rocket, you could change the tone on the whistle. The Pyrotomic whistles are simply a notch above anything else of this kind, the Spec whistle has much thinner plastic used. Anyway, very happy with all 3! I just need to figure out how to take apart the blue whistle, whoever lined this one up, did a poor job at it. The Spec whistle reads on the top, "Space Signal"

I watched this and never imagined it would go this high.

Found this DB on ebay last week. Basically in great condition, just needed a good cleaning. Hoping to find a few more now.

Not really sure what year these Renwals were made but I have been looking for this yellow and the green one for many months. Finally got them both last week.
I took the axles and wheels off to clean it up a little, so it would roll again. Had some serious rust on the axles. Used my rust eraser and some mild sandpaper
and now it rolls like new. Green one is on it's way still, stay tuned!

I found this whistle at the flea market a few weeks ago and it stopped me in my tracks. A lady had this in her case and didn't know anything about it.
Trophy was a small company that made plastic kazoos, whistles and other things musical, as well as novelty things for the kid market back in the 50s. I happen to know that these Rocket whistles were made in solid or primary colors like red, green, blue and yellow. But to find a marble plastic one is a little harder. It's a rocket, it's a whistle! Who can't like that combo? I did do some cleaning up before I tested the whistle out. I put the Micron sand papers to good use on this! It's very LOUD!
