near and farside globe images by Rob Robinson; ad found by Ken Poshedly

More news about the Manning Moon Ball has come from three sources. Ken found a 1967 Boys Life magazine with an ad for the globe, showing that it was still available after the Lunar Orbiter imaged the farside. But according to the ad only the nearside was depicted, although it was available in a selection of colors including "green cheese". Rob has a globe, bought on eBay about 15-20 ears ago, that may be a Manning Moon Ball, but it doesn't have any identification and does show the farside. Further informaiton comes from Rogue Forest, who uncovered a court Chuck Wood
OT Note: I will be in Rome Sept 19-24 for the European Planetary Science Conference and would be delighted to have dinner with any Italian followers of LPOD.
