Vintage Marx Two-Stage Earth Satellite Rocket Toy 1957

This is a handsome piece by Marx- and a sign if those times. The colors are great and everything works. I've owned two of these and both were thought to be broken. The toy is supposed to travel 3-4' before separation but they either break away sooner or get stuck together over time.

The pics of the inner 1st stage rocket show what looks like a BB. It is spring-loaded and these springs have lost their tension somewhat over time. You have to work with them a moment to get them to fully extend to attach securely to the Stage 2 rocket. It is a great toy and one of Marx's most realistic space piece.
