   HEY GUYS & GALS,  6 days post operation and doing a little better. typing a little struggle still.MY wife and her cousin in NC had this metal Rocket TARGET sign made for me as a surprise. Just got it today.   I did graphics on this target sign about ten years ago but never did anything with it.  was very excited and surprised to get this.  Had the rocket rifle and darts in box but now have a target to shoot at.   Thought I would share this.  My wife's cousin worked at the mfg plant where they make these signs. He is retired now.
Not  a lot daisy toy guys out there, but if someone has a Daisy Rocket dart pistol for sale give me a shout-out..  LOL

	Rick, so glad to hear that you are on the mend. Keep it up. That metal target is great! I really like the way it looks. That gal of yours is a keeper. 😉

	Keep getting better, Rick! The target sign is amazing- super cool graphics, and I hope you score a Daisy Rocket dart pistol to go with your rifle.

	Welcome back! I will keep my eyes peeled for your dart gun. Great graphics on the sign! What is the approximate vintage I should look for?

	THANKS GUYS. THE PIC OF SIGN DOESN'T DO IT JUSTICE. Jay the dart gun pistol is vintage early 1950s. PLYMOUTH They made both a dart and a cork gun pistol using the same frames.

	Rick that pistol is the tarted-up version of the (wildly popular) 1934 Rocket Pistol. The lithograph paint job on your pistol was obviously inspired by early hippie Daisy employees 'relaxing' out behind the Daisy plant. I'll keep my eyes open to help you find one.
