Description: Signed: "To Fred Ordway Affectionately--Wernher Von Braun" on title page. Fred Ordway: Frederick Ira Ordway, III (1927/Manhattan-2014/Huntsville) was a close associate of vB (1912-1977). The two men first met in 1955. If the buyer of this book wishes, I will email a copy of an academic paper that I wrote about Ordway and Frederick Clark Durant III (1916-2015). Ordway and Durant were among vB's closest confidants. Notice Fred Ordway's bookplate on the inside of the front cover. This was his personal copy of The Mars Project. This hardbound edition is complete w/ dustwrapper that has some wear as can be seen in the images. Some of pages have light foxing and slight surface dirt. Please note that the first image is a collage of different images all of which have been taken of the same book, thus, you are purchasing ONE book. Please study the images as they are part of the description, contact me if you have any questions or would like more images. Sold As-Is. Questions, please ask. Thanks for looking!
