Space: Man's New Frontier (1962)

A give away from Red Ball Jets shoes. It was published by C.S. Hammond, better known for atlases, who also made many of the giveaway space maps of the late 1950s and early 1960s. The illustrations in this pamphlet were also used on these map of our "future in space".


Wonderful distinctive art that was reused a number of time by Hammond in their publications.

The illustration of the real and speculative rockets side by side is very nice. The airbrushed smoke makes you feel like the rockets are fueled and ready for take off.


As you can tell I am a sucker for moonbases. The domed settlement on the moon with the elevations reinforces the impression that the settlement was just a few years away.
