a_v_c_o_AKP (MPR66-7783, 7-7-66, S67-28065 eq)

One of the many "Apollo Space Flight Vehicles" artist concepts produced as the Apollo Program evolved and progressed. This one also incorporates a first flight accomplished annotation, along with those planned. Note also what appears to be a blacked out line under the Saturn V "First Flight" notation.

 

Note also the alpha-numeric photograph identification being within the image, not in the white margin/border. This can be seen in multiple artist renderings during this time period, due to the re-issue of earlier renditions, to more accurately depict whatever changes had occurred, while still maintaining the overall content/appearance. Most likely, in the original publication of the photo, the blacked out area referenced an expected first manned Saturn V flight date.

 

Also:

 

“Artist concept of the Saturn V and the uprated Saturn I, Apollo space flight vehicles.”

 

Above description per that associated with S67-28065.
