Sears 1967 Christmas Catalog

Sears 1967 Christmas Catalog Cover

At the start of Major Matt Mason availability, Sears devotes less than a quarter of a page to Major Matt Mason (the rest of the page is covered with GI Joe playsets and figures). The ad is in black and white to boot. There is only one set listed which includes Major Matt Mason, motorized Space Crawler, Jet Propulsion Pak and Space Sled. This is basically the Space Crawler Action Set (not sure if that's what you got when you ordered though it sounds like it as only one box is indicated).
