Science Leads The Way! (1959)



Not much "space" content in here but a wonderful piece of nostalgia and a record of the space race drive to educate children. A.C. Gilbert made "scientific" toys, which meant chemistry sets, telescopes, erector sets, etc.  This was a promotional comic book advertising their products.

 Science Leads The Way. New Haven, CT: A.C. Gilbert Co. 26 p. softcover, 18 cm. 1959
Production seems to have been handled by the ACG Comics company. The artist is ACG stalwart John Rosenberger.


















 All of a sudden, I'm awake!
 A rare advertisement for women in science




You've helped to demonstrate the importance of science as a strong, living force in today's world.

    Production seems to have been handled by the ACG Comics company. The artist is ACG stalwart John Rosenberger and the lettering is by ACG's usual lettterer, whose name I don't know.
