Collier’s magazine, which became famous to space buffs for publishing articles on Wernher von Braun’s future space plans illustrated by Chesley Bonestell in the 1950s, also published a great article with beautiful photographs taken by and of the 200-inch Hale Observatory when it officially opened for business in 1949. The full issue, plus some vintage ads, have been scanned in online at this Web site: http://www.popiofamily.com/Colliers_Palomar/index.htm Larry
