Description :
Books & Ephemera:
Wernher Von Braun Trio
FIRST MEN TO
THE MOON by Wernher Von Braun. Hardcover dustjacket/plastic protector. 1960,
Holt Rinehart & Winston (New York NY). 96 pages. A novella written by the
famous rocket scientist, sections of which first appeared in the periodical "The
Week Magazine" in 1958 & 1959. Very good used condition. I AIM AT THE
STARS – THE WERNHER VON BRAUN STORY. Interesting publication in comic book form
promoting the movie of the same name and also sanitizing motivations in von
Braun’s past as a Nazi scientist; lots of romance and typical bravery tropes as
would be expected of the time period when the US decided employing Nazis was
preferable to communism. Note that the cover has pulled off the staples, easily repaired. See last photo.
I AIM AT THE
STARS – THE WERNHER VON BRAUN STORY – 8 lobby cards from the movie version of
the story covered in the above comic book. Measure 11” H x 14” W. In good used shape with some writing and pinholes.
