A page on the Space Unit's website describes the book as "out of print and, so far, impossible to find anywhere."</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#333333"><TD valign=top>yeknom-ecaps</TD><TD>It really wasn't as much a philatelic "history" book as such ... it was a listing of rocket flights through 1960 with a value range for what a cover for that flight would be worth — a very small number of covers were pictured.Only a small number were produced as it wasn't really a book but three-hole punched black and white pages copied whenever an order came. The buyer could then put the pages in a binder. There was NOT a special binder created for it that I know of.A follow-on listing had been edited through 1965 but was never published.</TD></TR></TABLE></td></tr></table>
