Vintage 1965 Mercury Nevada Photo Article Atomic Nuclear Atom Bomb Test Site:
$49.95

The January, 1965 copy of \"The Atom\" published by the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico. It includes a cover story and a multiple page article on \"A Place Called Mercury,\" about the massive, secret, irradiated Nevada Test atomic test site which includes Mercury, where the employees lived. The cover photograph of Mercury is an original taken by a Los Alamos employee, who also took the detailed photos for the article. These are probably some of the few photos out there of facilities inside the town of Mercury.
The magazine is about 8 1/2\" x 11\", 24 pages, well illustrated. It includes a lot of other great content in addition to the article on Mercury. Very good condition with minor dog-earing. Still nicely crisp. A nice copy of a rare booklet. A scarce, solid addition to any collection. I ship every day the post office is open with your item safely packed for protection and I always combine shipping. Please see my store for more museum quality artifacts of history.
