    Description

    Original vintage collectible 20-page front section of The Miami News printed February 20, 1962.
    The bold headline reads, "HE'S BACK! - After 3 Orbits" with a HUGE-lettered and BOLD "HE'S BACK!" that's undeniably exciting. The nation was electrified with enthusiasm. This is a benchmark space race moment when John Glenn became the first American astronaut to complete orbit. Cover includes color photo of the rocket launching and astronaut Glenn.
    There are some browned foxing spots from exposure. These are not necessarily uncommon given the age of the piece. Overall, it's in good condition and will absolutely be an impressive display item for any collector, enthusiast, or historian.
    Newspaper listings are often from my personal collection.
    I have been a collector for over 25 years. Unfortunately, I just cannot keep them all.
    Each is a unique pre-loved vintage, historic, and/or collectible piece. I would generally consider them to be good to very good condition. Obvious imperfections or damage are noted in the description and photographed. Send a message if you have questions.
