BOB PALMER MARS???

back in the goodole days thier was a model hanging up at a dept store in the seattle area that had twin rudders, I think it was a bob palmer mars, can anyone verify that...sorry no pictures, just memorie

Palmer's Mars looked a bit like an Ercoupe. It had twin vertical tails, a sort of bubble canopy, a tricycle landing gear and cheek cowls, one of which covered a side mounted Fox.

I scanned the whole article but it doesn't look worth a hoot at 50K. I'll send you the larger scans if you like.
