Space Race Ed-U-Cards - 1952, 1957, 1969
Notes: The series was first produced as a card game, then was reprinted in 1957 as "Satellite Space Race" with satellite artwork on the card box. Soon thereafter, two cards were replaced with the "Sputnik" and "Friendly Satellite" cards, and the race was on. The 1969 reprint is seen with orange backs (similar to the 1952 and 1957 editions) or blue backs. Produced as a boxed set.
