Does anyone know who made these? Kc-135, with operating boom, retractable gear, and B-47 with retractable gear. Many hours of playtime with these.

In 1967 and last week...

That's too bad; I was really hoping someone had seen these before. Span on each aircraft is about 9", and the boom for the tanker plugs into the hole in the fuselage of the '47.

Hopefully someone will recognize them. No ID markings anywhere on them.

I am wondering if they may be parts from the Strategic Air Command play set that Marx produced. They made different sets for Sears and Montgomery Wards. I know that part of the Sears set was a similar sized B-52 {impossible to find today} and a KC-135 would have been an appropriate addition to the set. Worth checking out.
