Golden Age Comic book models

I recently downloaded some issues of a golden age sci-fi comic called Science Comics, and found these inside.

Kind of simple but fun.

Those are great. Do you happen to know how old they are? 1930s? I like the rocket - very Buck Rogers looking.

The rocket is also consistent with the theme of the next International Paper Modelers' Convention (IPMC): "Space: Real and Imagined."

The Snow Schooner is from the April 1940 edition of Science Comics.

They're from Science Comics, 1940~41

Here are a couple more. A bomber and a Battleship
