Here you go. Not sure which release it is, as there is no copyright year on the paperwork. 4 page manual, a kit assembly sheet (front/back), and a motor order sheet.
If you need a pic of the rocket itself, let me know! These first three: There is a front/back page (first two pics) A pic of Cox's motor order sheet Allen |

If you decide to fly it, find a way to retain the motor retainer.
Sometimes, it can dislodge and separate. I was lucky to find mine. I drilled a small hole in the backplate and one in the retainer, then used a piece of Kevlar thread to tie them together to keep it from getting lost. I should get Alex Boyce to make one of each for me. I also have the Cox Sat V, but it needs a new tower. Again, maybe Alex can do it ... Allen |

Allen-
Those appear to be the early 70s instructions. Don't know if the early 90s versions differed much from these, however I doubt it. I've got the manual scanned here if anybody needs scanned versions. They are just like what Allen posted most immediately above, but I don't want to unnecessarily steal his thunder. Earl

Oh, it's fine! I don't know how to scan in an efficient means, so I posted the pics of them. Now my GF is a whiz at it, but she' s out of town! |

Attached is the 1990 version of the Cox Apollo Saturn 1B Instruction Manual. The first page and the fourth page are different from the 70s instructions. Some illustrations, along with igniter installation is different. Also, fourth page lists a parts list which was not included on the original. Kind regards, Jeff Jenkins aka: Faithwalker NAR #46879 SR |

I would fly it without the retainer and just friction-fit the motor(s) with masking tape.

Ok, here are scans of the early 70s manual. Thanks Faithwalker for the 90s version!
The attached PDFs are 400 dpi, so they are too big to do as one document. Earl

...and here are scans of the 'instructions' (one page, back and front). Also, a single page 'replacement parts' price diagram, which was in the kit.
