LIFE Magazine "OUR MOON TRIP" by LIFE (Time Inc.) (Magazine, History, Space, 1969, LIFE Our Moon Trip, astronaut stories, Apollo 11 summary, Aug 22 1969, 1969 fashion)

This is the August 22, 1969, issue of LIFE magazine, featuring "OUR MOON TRIP," where the astronauts write their own stories of the journey. The cover also highlights a feature on "That young NEW YORK LOOK."

Review:
This issue serves as the perfect epilogue to the moon landing saga, offering the personal reflections of the heroes themselves. It provides a unique, human perspective on the technical achievement, while the fashion feature is a fun snapshot of 1969 culture.

Author summary:
Throughout the 1960s, LIFE (published by Time Inc.) presented the astronauts as all-American heroes. This issue, featuring their own words, is the culmination of that narrative, giving the public a personal look inside the historic mission.

The collectible value is moderate. It completes the Apollo 11 story arc in LIFE. The grade is fair, better than some of the other copies. Its historical interest is high as a primary source from the astronauts. Its rarity is comparable to the other issues in the series.
