This card comes from Roy A. Gallant’s first book, “Exploring the Moon,” and shows it’s circulation throughout the 80s. It was published in 1955 and not only sold over 100,000 copies but led to a series of ‘Exploring’ books touching on chemistry, weather and planets. This book was, for many, an introduction to the Moon, as it would be another fourteen years before Neil Armstrong set foot on it, and four years before the Soviet Union crashed their Luna II probe into the surface. ———————————————— Follow the link in our profile to check out all the library card designs in our Society6 shop!
