Nostalgia!
Remember L5 colonies? Well,
An example:
I chose this one because as far as I know it contains the only non-white person ever depicted in a space colony illustration from this era.
Three space colony summer studies were conducted at NASA Ames in the 1970s. A number of artistic renderings of the concepts were made. These have been scanned and are available here as small, medium, large, and publication quality jpeg images. Scans by David Brandt-Erichsen.
