For many years now I have been following a blog called "Dreams of Space". It's a collection of "Non-fiction children's space flight stuff 1945-1975" which, as someone who appreciates a good collection, I thought was a brilliant way of setting limits (which is rule number one of starting a collection of anything) whilst keeping a great open field. Not only is the blog visually stimulating it is also fascinating to see the effort to depict space before we knew much about space. Anyway, when I found this book Worlds in Space by Martin Caidin in 1954 illustrated by Fred L Wolff, I couldn't help myself!
