That was the first time I saw that word "Leporello" and I won't forget it. This is a nice piece of art for illustration lovers or astronauts. Very good printing and rare format. I like it a lot. It's worth to have it at home.

"Space Race" is a richly illustrated almost poster-like leporello about the soviet union and the united states race to the moon.The quality is superb and the delivery was extremely fast.
