You just can't keep a good NOVA down [a la Spacex] and here's another one on an old badge for CARREFOUR, a large French retailer [thanks Paul!]. You can see that the badge illustration is basically a straight lift of the oft-copied Ed Valigursky painting done in the early 1960's. Any more NOVA's out there?

Some more cool space badges online. Remember these?
And I'm soooo excited to see THESE BADGES on flickr again
- JELLY TERROR, LOLLY GOBBLE CHOC BOMB and HAUNTED HOUSE LOLLIES!
Carrefour (means Crossroads) is a large chain of french super(hyper)markets. Apparently they had a brief foray into the UK, which is when that badge was produced.

i vagulely recall seeing carrefour shops here and there around the country, with a clover shaped logo. That would be in the seventies.

ReplyDeleteIs it just me or does Red Ray look a bit sinister?
