Prometheus and a Carnival

That's the headline on the last page of this excerpt from Time's July 25, 1969 issue.

Do you recall when magazines used special paper, which was bound into specific parts of the magazine -- all because color printing took special methods?

The title of this final page, as I noted above, is a cute summary of the both the sideshow and the science-aspirational aspects of the whole Moon Shot deal.

See you next week!

  

Don't Step in the Moonglow

Of course, in this case "moonglow" is reporterese for "being in the spotlight" of public notice.

This is from the July 20, 1969 Tulsa World.

See you next week, fellow moon-baskers!
