Eaton's Department Store Catalogs

Major Matt Mason Space Patrol

I believe Eaton's (originally T. Eaton's Company Ltd.) at one time was Canada's largest department store chain. Based on the catalogs I possess I think Simpsons-Sears was a bit larger by the late 60's as their catalogs had many more offerings. I own a small collection from 1965-1970 and only managed to find Major Matt Mason items in two of them:

Eaton's "Canada's Christmas Catalogue 1968"

The 1968 catalog is nearly a full-page with Capt. Lazer prominent, and introduces Sgt. Storm, the Firebolt Space Cannon and the Astro Trac.

"At Eaton's Christmas is for People" 1970

The 1970 catalog introduces the Talking Major Matt Mason, the Star Seeker and the XRG-1 reentry glider.
