We Work with Apollo, So Buy Our Products!

These two ads from the September 12, 1969 issue of Time are only two of the myriads of self-pufferies by many of the companies which either provided tech or advice to Apollo ... or companies which, like the "official sponsors" of sports teams nowadays, bought their way in.
Now, General Dynamic has a valid trumpet to toot.
Rand McNally is more of a stretch, although they did print (in 1968) an "official" map of the moon, which I'll share in due time.

See you next Monday with something mundane or momentous, but definitely of lunar importance!
