One trading card from the Red Menace collection, "34. 'Tiny Tim' " depicting a rocket released from a fighter plane. Reverse side contains propaganda narrative describing a "U.S. 11.75-inch rocket," known as Tiny Tim fired from the fighter plane "Corsair," to demolish a bridge. Text details the make originating from a 2.36-inch bazooka from World War II. "It pierces armor and is highly expensive."
