Yuri Gagarin 50 years on

I was reminded by the news broadcast this morning, (as well as by Google) that today was the 50th Anniversary of Gagarin's epic journey into space. I have the front page of the London Evening Standard of April 12th 1961, announcing the start of "The world's greatest adventure.."

My Old Man suggested that I keep a copy, as it would be of some interest in the future.

A photo of it is attached, but resolution is not too good, so it's difficult to read.
