Always on the look out for potential sources for SWORD and SpaceX art, here's a beautiful illustration from an unknown childrens' book 1969. The Lunar Orbiter isn't that similar to the SpaceX card art shown below, but overall it's a lovely montage of space vehicles. It's interesting that the capsule is called a Ferry Vehicle. The space station has been clearly pilfered from Bob McCall's iconic 2001 Space Odyssey poster art although the departing spaceship is not the same as the original space clipper. Anyone know which kids' book this came from?
