Default Paper satellites book

Hello All,

I recently found a 1969 book (available from used book vendors such as AbeBooks.com [ www.abebooks.com ]) titled "Model Satellites & Spacecraft: Their Stories and How to Make Them" by Frank Ross, Jr. It contains photographs of--and basic information on--spacecraft up to its time, from the simple Tetrahedral and Octahedral Research Satellites to the later Explorer satellites and the Mariner planetary spacecraft.
