Here is another favorite rescanned since it's last posting 11 years ago. It was a coloring book that was a give-away from Lord and Taylor's Department stores. With it's moon dust snowflakes and 1970s design it is a winner every Christmas.  I especially enjoy how Santa has to get into shape and be briefed on his mission to the Moon. Merry Christmas on the Moon (and on Earth too...) to you all! Thanks for sticking with the mission. The Moon Christmas Coloring Book. London: Lord and Taylors Dept. Store. (19 p.) 1970
