Letters to the Editor
OuR CovER
Graphic view of action in space is achieved by commercial illustrator John
Berkey through use of acrylics and casein, followed by varnish. Mr. Berkey,
who works out of his studio in Excelsior, Minnesota, has illustrated in major
magazines and for major corporations for 30 years. He has done even more
historical than space illustration.
