Straight out of Compton


Found these 2 nice yearbooks, The Compton Yearbook - An illustrated, factual record of outstanding events in 1963 complete with dust covers still intact. Although the insides of these two yearbooks aren't that spectacular, the dust covers are fantastically sci-fi.

1964 Edition




Special Feature Articles of Topical Interest:
The Olympic Games
Trends in Modern American Literature
Training of an Astronaut
The New Math

A Summary and Interpretation of the Year's Events to Supplement
