  2. Cool! Probably all too dangerous for today’s safety standards!

  3. I played in that second picture on a playground in Detroit. It was not the 70’s, more like late 1990 but I can tell you it was amazing!!!! :)

  4. I remember one like the second picture, too, but sure would have enjoyed the space cruiser!

  5. We had a Rocket slide in my neighborhood (Ohio). It was great fun. Now everything has gobs of padding and is “non-threatening” in concept. Bleh.

  6. Riverside Park in my hometown had the rocket in the second photo… I remember it so distinctly. Of course, my favorite movies were Space Camp and Flight of the Navigator. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
