I do NOT need online image refs thanks.

They are likely to be - and would prefer - official agency or contractor news release photos:-

White Sands Missile Range circa 1953-end 57

Cape Canaveral Lighthouse circa 1955-58

ANY news release photos taken FROM Cape Canaveral Lighthouse (we're talking Bumper,Viking shots)

Any news release photos of SCOUT launcher - pre flight,launch site,launch

Strapps Rocket Sled rides (news release photos again )

MOONWATCH and MOONBLINK news photos

Any ASKANIA theodolite kit news photos ( These were - may still be ?? - at Cape Canaveral and at EAFB.) Used to track missile launches in early days and to track shuttle returns to EAFB.

Any help appreciated

Mr. Parker - Don't know if this will be of help to you, but, re your White Sands photos (1953-57), we ran a lot in the Aurora Galleries auction of April 2002 (lot 403) that I described as 1945-49 Scrapbook of Personal Photographs put together by SSgt Melvin Frankuche containing 39 pages, 175 photos. The photos cover his military career as he moved from one base to another. He included a fair number of V-2 photos and Base photos. The lot was sold in the sale BUT, if you think you would be interested in persuing the matter, you could write me a letter expressing your interest and I would forward it on the the successful buyer. No guarantee that he still has it, but who knows.
Hope that helps.

6/13/1972 Intelsat IV-F5 Launch; Atlas-Centaur pad 36B.

It is a 5x7 glossy, original printed by NASA, but no caption on the back. Let me know if you are interested.

Yes everything OK

I've been busy so much that the email got 'pushed down' my queue.

Apologies.
I've responded seperately to you tonight
