ttn_v_c_o_AKP (Titan IIIC artist concept, PL-62-79600)

Artist's concept of a USAF Titan III-C missile on the launchpad, circa 1962.

 

I’m quite certain this work is by John Gorsuch.

 

Text on the verso, "ARTWORK OF 624 A MISSILE." is a reference to the solid-propellant motor/solid rocket motor (SRM). "624A" apparently being the nomenclature that identifies the SRM associated with the Titan III-C.
