THE RACE TO SPACE (C1958-1962) 4102

Original Universal Pictures One Sheet Poster (27x41) for the short documentary film, THE RACE TO SPACE (c. 1958-1962). The beep-beep of the first satellite, Sputnik, launched into earth orbit by the Soviets in 1957, initiated a furious contest to see whether the Russians or the Americans would be first in aerospace technology. This space age artifact is a rare documentary short from Universal Pictures. This original one sheet poster is folded and in very fine condition.
