I have many boxes of aerospace stuff to scan to preserve it for the ages. A lot of it is technical documentation, but some of it is historical stuff of probably rather esoteric interest. For example, a few mementos of the 1963 “Old Timers” reunion. This was a get-together of the rocket scientists from Fort Bliss, 1945: you know, von Braun and the gang. One of the booklets included many photos… and many cartoons drawn for the occasion, including the one below. I suspect that if someone had the temerity to create and publish such a thing *today* there’d be a social media firestorm and a tussle down in HR.
