Fascinating read on Gerd De Beek, to whom this photo was specifically to be distributed:

Per an August 1962 Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) organizational chart, de Beek was head of the Graphic Engineering and Model Studies Branch, Office of Management Services (OMS)/Management Services Office (office symbol M-MS).

 

Possibly the same “M-MS” that constitutes the beginning alphanumeric numbering of many early MSFC-produced concept art?

 

Same photo used as "header" for this excellent article & accompanying video. A small bit of history preserved, bravo:
