PIPCO—FS1—Package Back

Maker: PIPCO
Model: Flyin-Saucer
Style: FS1
Mold:
Size: 9.125 inches (originally 9.25 inches)
Disc Color: Blue
Lettering/Hot Stamp: Flyin-Saucer
Label/Sticker:
Date Introduced: 1949 (1948 discs not packaged)
Number Produced:
Period of Manufacture: 1949–1950
Special Notes: Brittle cellophane wrapping. Molded by Southern California Plastic Company (SCP). The tightly clinging wrapper seems to have minimized outgassing from the "Tuffy" plastic causing less distortion of the disc's shape over time. (See the FS4 for an example of the original mold shape.) Only packaged FS1 known to date.
