Spacesuits: The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum Collection.

A visual survey of the National Air and Space Museum’s spacesuit holdings, photographed by Mark Avino, tracing pressure-suit development from 1930s high-altitude gear through the Apollo-Soyuz suits of 1975, including unflown and experimental designs. Foreword by Lt. Gen. Thomas P. Stafford, USAF (Ret.); introduction by Allan Needell. Young curated the Museum’s spacesuit collection for over two decades. Pairs naturally on this shelf with Abramov and Skoog’s Russian Spacesuits and de Monchaux’s Spacesuit: Fashioning Apollo (both above).
