<p>Note: While not being spaceflight related, I thought I'd add this cover to this discussion. It is the School Bulletin from March 1970 and is about the solar eclipse occurring that month. I thought it would be appropriate, especially with the "Great American Eclipse" due this August. The photo is courtesy of Abramo Russo.</p>

<p>Interesting, I saw the March 1970 eclipse in totality at Wallops Island, Virginia. Wallops is a NASA facility and they launched about three dozen sounding rockets during the eclipse to study its effects on the upper atmosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere. It was quite a show, but no comparison to the total eclipse itself.</p> Thanks Jeff, it's renamed.tag:ngscollectors.ning.com,2017-04-24:1029239:Comment:1385292017-04-24T19:52:46.051ZGeorge Thomas Wilsonhttp://ngscollectors.ning.com/profile/GeorgeThomasWilson

<p>I've never really had a hankering for (trying to) collect the School Bulletins, even though I have some odd 'sample' copies.</p>
<p>However, as you just showed, I have had on my low-priority to-do list to at least get all the space-theme related covers. Wonderful illustrations! </p>
