About this Item

This is a gorgeous coffee-table book by the famous astronaut and extremely talented painter, Alan Bean. "What one must understand about Al Bean is he is the only artist to have ever walked on the moon. No poet has ever been to the lunar surface, nor any journalist, architect, nor songwriter. In the realm of the Arts it has fallen upon Al Bean to be the one moonwalker to turn hard data brought back from the moon into something other than numbered photographs. The images that Al has committed to canvas, then, are important, inspiring, and priceless works of art. Not only has he painted the moon, he's been there." -- Tom Hanks. This book is in flawless Fine condition and is a 1st Edition/1st Printing. The dust jacket is not price-clipped. It is completely clean but has a few light scratches and a single closed edge tear from the top edge of the seam between spine and back cover -- about 3/4" long. A great space program collectible. Will be bubble-wrapped to protect the corners and shipped in a sturdy box to ensure safe delivery.
