Saxon Fireworks (Saschen Feurwerks -- later WECO) . Same one MRC outsourced to. I don't think they were making model rocket motors back in 1971. Hard to find original info about Saxon as that is also the name of a type of firework. I don't know if they merged with WECO or if WECO just started also supplying Quest after Saxon folded.
The type of nozzle and clay composition made me think back in the day that MPC was making the Cox motors all along.. 1. does anyone have a Cox motor with a manufacture date later than 6/11/71? 2. does anyone have a Cox motor with a nozzle significantly different than the ones made before 6/11/71?
