This is a retail box from the early 1970s of a small movie camera made by Estes Industries for use in its Cineroc flying rocket models. Color film and batteries to operate the camera are included. The camera fit into the front section of the Cineroc and would be retrieved with the rocket at the end of flight.
Estes Industries donated this artifact to the museum.
