1950s Spaceman in Tomorrowland



A few new space ago shots of 1950's Tomorrowland, beginning with what looks like a CD/DVD on this gent's costume. Talk about predicting the future!



This July 1958 image shows a different cast member, but the same uniform...without the disc.



This previously posted shot of the same Spaceman is also from July 1958; I wonder if it was originally from the same photographer but just got separated over the years? Either way, nice to see these two united again.



More Spaceman (and Spacewoman) photos at my main website.

  1. The design on his chest in the first photograph is for the Kaiser Aluminum Telescope found in the Kaiser exhibit.

  2. Phew, I thought it was another one of those darned AOL disks we used to get in the mail so much in the 90's.

    I'm wondering if that first 'space man' is Ray Webster. There is a picture of Ray included in an article just issued today. Take a look. KS
