    I've never really had a hankering for (trying to) collect the School Bulletins, even though I have some odd 'sample' copies.

    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!

      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.

      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.
