Space1970

Last night I had the great enjoyment of taking in a viewing of the great unsung 1978 sci-fi journey Message from Space. It is, essentially, the Japanese response to Star Wars. Watch the trailer and then immediately queue it up.

But that's really just the impetus behind the point here. While looking up additional info on the movie I ran across the blog Space1970 - a fan's tribute to all things science fiction within the decade known for its interplanetary models, model spaceships, inventive practical effects and groundbreaking (at the time) digital effects. A lot of it looks kitsch now but there's still plenty of inspiring imagery and typography throughout.
