Space Racer 1950's Style

Just got time to post this before the Clash of the Iberian Titans gets underway in Euro 2012, Spain V Portugal! The Space racer thread has made me think of the craft on the cover of this magazine cover I have in my photo archives, Science Fiction Plus: A Preview of the Future, Can't read the date but it looks like the 1950's.

Looks a bit like Treen fighter from Dan Dare.
