a_v_bw_o_AKP (Grumman LM, no. 67347)
Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation (GAEC) print/artwork, ca. 1967, depicting the docked Lunar Module-Command/Service Module stack prior to undocking and a/the lunar landing.
GAEC + LEM/LM + artist's concept = (almost exclusively) Craig Kavafes. However, his signature is not to be found, unlike the vast majority of his other work, even early on. Additionally, this doesn't quite look to be by his hand IMHO. Whoever it was, it really looks like the coveted Precise Models Inc. LM model served as the “model”.
Note also how ‘pointy’ the Command Module is, with its SpaceX Crew Dragon-like appearance. Being GAEC-produced artwork, I think accurate depiction of the NAA-manufactured Command/Service Module was not a hard & fast requirement.
Regardless, I love it.
