Darth Swank points out a collection of illustrations and cover-art from space books dating from all through the 20th century. It's pretty cool to look at these, not just for the "retro" aspect but in that I grew up reading this stuff -- a lot of these titles are the ones that shaped my fascination with, and hopes for, the future of space travel. In fact, this one is the first space book I remember reading, when I was in first grade, appropriately titled The First Book of Space Travel. (It was written in 1953, four years before Sputnik.)
