a+_v_bw_o_n (ca. 1963/64, poss. nuc. LM&SC lunar proposal, verso hand annotated I73, poss. K603 eq)

Circa 1962-64 Lockheed Missiles & Space Company artist’s concept of a Saturn-Apollo nuclear “lunar logistics” vehicle, depicting simultaneous jettison of the interstage, S-II stage ignition & payload fairing separation. Striking - what I’m pretty sure to be - artistic license.

 

8.5" x 11".

 

Although unsigned, extrapolating from what I assume to be other works from this series, possibly by Anthony Saporito & J. Kramer? William Collopy? Or the man himself, Ludwik Źiemba?
