Anyone else remember National Geographic Picture Atlas of Our Universe?

Over on the Free Space forum, there's a good thread about how cSers' interest/obsession with space began, and several posters mention specific books that helped "hook" them at an early age. This was mine. Got a copy from my grandfather one Christmas; I must have been seven or eight at the time. That discussion inspired me to go on a little nostalgia trip... Just bought a new-looking copy off eBay for ten bucks.
