I am very pleased to announce the publication of my book, "Celebrating 50 Years, Apollo 11: The Artwork of Paul Calle."This new book is the second edition of the book we published in 2009 for the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11 moon landing, featuring artwork by my father Paul Calle.
The book details his space artwork with an emphasis on the on-the-spot pen and ink drawings he did of the Apollo 11 crew the morning of the launch to the moon on July 16, 1969, when he was the only artist allowed access to the crew during their breakfast, suiting up and walkout.
Additional images and text has been added to the original content, as well as 12 new pages in a chapter titled, "Carry on the Legacy." This chapter features artwork for the U.S. postage stamp designs by me and those jointly designed with my father, as well as my own recent space artwork.
Signed copies, $34.95 from chris@calleart.com. If you will be attending Spacefest in August, your order can be picked up at the event.
