Another ATS I noticed this week was over on John Sisson's superlative and long-running space books blog Dreams of Space.
John lovingly posts the picture and text pages from vintage space books and journals and one such is the We Land on the Moon colouring book series.
It features beautiful line drawings of many classic space vehicles including the ATS [SpaceX toy] and Booster Rocket [Project SWORD toy].
Have a look yourself http://dreamsofspace.blogspot.co.uk/2017/07/we-land-on-moon-coloring-book-based-on_14.html
There's also a finely drawn Boost Rocket in another volume:
Even more impressive are the number of drawings in the companion volume, which features the MEV2 [SpaceX toy], Moon Prospector [SpaceX and SWORD toys] and many of the building modules which would have likely featured in the planned Project SWORD Moon Base Set as seen in the SWORD Manual.
The drawings appear to be copies of Ed Valigursky's original paintings which appeared in the iconic Man and Space. I agree with blog owner John, this is the best of these colouring books:
These drawings would be superb for printing out and colouring or painting. if anyone does any please send me a scan for the blog!
