Description

1958 Space Flight Golden Library Knowledge Book Del Ray Polgreen

A 1958 publication “Space Flight” from the Golden Library of Knowledge series. Author Lester Del Ray and Illustrated by John Polgreen.

Sub-titled “The Coming Exploration of the Universe”, the book explores the anticipated expansion of human space travel. Interesting and quirky with images of ‘spacemen’ drinking from what appears to be a soda can and wearing leather business shoes while floating in the gravity-less flight deck of a space-craft!

The book is in excellent condition with no obvious markings or damage. Some minor scuffing to the covers from shelf-wear. Too early for an ISBN, Golden Press New York copyright 1958, 1957 by General Mills, and 1959 by Golden Press.
