STSprog_v_c_o_TPMBK (1976, unnumbered poss. Rockwell Int'l photo)

Artist’s concept depicting a space shuttle orbiter about to land after completion of its mission.

 

One of who knows how many near identical (as far as the scene/perspective is concerned) of evolving/proposed shuttle configurations, as developed & propagated by (I think) Rockwell International. As such, I’m guessing it’s gotta be by the once elusive Manuel E. Alvarez…I think.

 

The date range is a total SWAG.

 

And most importantly, it lives on as a "REPUBLIQUE ISLAMIQUE DE MAURITANIE" stamp:
