Its turning into a good month for vintage space books as we run up to the 50th anniversary of the Lunar Landing! One of the most recent and certainly the smallest is a dinky little booklet given away free with Sunfresh fruit juice.
Sunfresh isn't a brand a I recall, but the booklets publishers, Odhams are a very well respected British publisher, who were very popular in the sixties. The little 36 page book is only about 3" long and would probably have been either attached to the label on the bottle, or been a mail-away. Inside, its dated 1967 and it covers Gagarin's famous achievement, before focussing more on the Mercury and Gemini missions, with a little about the nascent Apollo programme. In fact Saturn 1 is the closest we get to the launch vehicle with a very stylised Apollo/LEM combination on the cover.
The last panel is the most interesting, as it shows a good looking wheel space station. The scans are a little wobbly, as the rusting staples have foxed the paper, making it a little fragile to open out fully.
