Yesterday is today! Today is tomorrow! But you'll be able to keep track of it all with this wonderful calendar featuring fantastic photos of toy ray guns from the 1930s through the 1950s! These toys represent the pinacle of mid-century futuristic design. Colorful, fanciful, and visually dynamic, they're both playful and subtly sinister, evoking a time when Martians lurked around every corner, and creatures from Venus would gladly eat you for dinner. They also represent a high point in toy manufacturing, when plastic was new and pesky child safety laws were as much a part of science fiction as ray guns themselves. Whether you're a science fiction fan, a designer looking for inspiration, a toy collector, or just someone who needs to know what day someone's birthday falls on, this calendar is for you! Forward... into the future!
