First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. N. Stanilla (illustrator). First Edition. Stated first edition with $4.50 price on flap. The Chesley Bonestell-quality jacket and color plates in this early space program promotional book alone are worth consigning to any space exploration collection, but the narrative itself is engaging and historically significant, telling how the Space Age would affect Americans, their mode of living, and world peace. Book is fine and unmarked. Jacket is near fine but for two small corner chips protected by the archival My lar jacket cover. Uncommon.
