About this model:

The Saturn IB (alternatively known as the Uprated Saturn I) was an uprated version of the Saturn I rocket, which replaced its S-IV second stage with the much more powerful S-IVB. Unlike the earlier Saturn I, the IB had enough throw weight to launch either the partially fueled Apollo Command/Service Module (CSM), or the fully fueled Lunar Module (LM) into Earth orbit. It was used for early testing of the Apollo spacecraft while the larger Saturn V needed to send it to the Moon was still being developed, and for the first manned CSM Earth orbital mission (first planned for Apollo 1, later Apollo 7).
