Three drawings and one chart, pen and ink and pencil, 13½ by 16½ inches, with stamped signatures of Raymond Loewy, one dated June, 1972, uniformly framed. Designs for nesting storage units with snap-on handles and lids, showing the connecting devices, supports, guides and locks. The 24 by 18 by 18 inch storage modules were designed to each contain a specific task with required tools. The chart compares 4 alternatives for orbital rendezvous: direct docking, partial ship docking, station transfer taxi and articulation between ship and station. NASA hired Raymond Loewy in 1967 as a habitability consultant for the Saturn-Apollo and Skylab projects. At the time he was already the world's foremost industrial designer.
