Description
I woud have a hard time trying to explain why I love these so much: their extreme stodginess, their rational optimism that still equated scientific knowledge with progress. Comics as a pedagical tool for the young, as propaganda material for the American atomic age of plenty and, at some point, as 1960s geometric abstract art.

This piece calls for a dramatic reading with the narration done like a newsreel. I wonder if these actually inspired kids to one day become an atomic physicist?
