STSprog_vr_c_o_TPMBK (NASA-S-72-1131-X, 108-KSC-72PC-310)

"Artist Concept - Space shuttle orbiter landing."

 

Note the lack of OMS pods and the wing-tip mounted reaction control system thrusters. Apparently, this is design “MSC 040C”. Who knew??? Did you?? I didn’t!

 

On the verso, somebody forgot, didn’t know how to, or didn’t give a damn about changing the typeset or whatever it is. While light & faded, "NASA/APOLLO" can easily be made out. Par for the course.

 

Based on another work from this 'series', I believe this to be the work of Norman Tiller.

 

While the horizon would appear to maybe suggest Edwards Air Force Base, I don't believe there was/is a Runway 10 there. I may be wrong, but I haven't come across anything to the contrary.
