    1976 NERF Catalog




    NERF stands for Non-Expanding Recreational Foam (thanks wikipedia!) and was first introduced to households in 1969 as the the first indoor ball, With it's success, saw many other application for this fun and safe material. 40 years after it's introduction, NERF is still widely available which is a testament to how timeless an idea it really is.
    1976 was a good year for NERF, we've go planes, cars and missiles as well as NERF's own Superhero in NERF MAN! This catalog is kind of special to me as it belonged to my dad and you can see some of his pricing notes on some of the pages. Click on the pages for a better view.

      I had a Nerf rocket launcher back in 1978. It was a lot of fun but I lost the rockets on the playground.

            Pretty cool that nerfman survived your childhood. Wish mine had.

                As a kid I had 2 Nerf balls, a blue and an orange. As an adult, I have a Nerf ping pong set, both at home and at school.

                  I found an ad for the Nerf planes:

                  YouTube - 1976 Nerf Classic Fighters
                  "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
                  'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
                  Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
                  If your mission is magic your love will shine true."
