This is a card model of the Delta II rocket used to launch the Mars rover “Spirit” on June 10, 2003. It is a Delta II model 7925-9.5, and was No. 298.
The model was built stock, but with some modifications. A cardboard model rocket tube was used for the main body of the rocket, and smaller tubes were for the solid rocket boosters. The model was shortened by a little less than an inch to make it the correct height.
