Daily Book Graphics #149 / Space Race II






This book was published in 1960 with a revised edition in 1962. It's main focus it the preparation for space travel as at the time of the publication of the revision John Glenn had just become the first American in space. This is one of those stamp/sticker books where kids would put certain illustrations in place. Is there a name for that genre? The illustration of the hallucinating astronaut is the best the part.
