Apollo Concept Artwork Group of Fourteen Vintage Color Transparencies
Apollo Concept Artwork Group of Fourteen Vintage Color Transparencies Directly from the Collection of NASA Photo Expert J. L. Pickering. A large group of vintage 4" x 5" NASA color transparencies illustrating key phases of the Apollo program. Among the images are: Apollo Command Module under parachute descent at splashdown; Apollo spacecraft in lunar orbit, silhouetted against the rugged cratered surface; Apollo Command/Service Module in free flight against deep space; Command Module reentry into Earth's atmosphere, trailing fiery plasma, and many others. Highly collectible as both Apollo-era ephemera and vintage space art, they convey the futuristic vision of human space exploration at the dawn of the lunar age.
