The treatment of the illustrations seems to me very odd. There is a list of them at the start, and the captions to the pictures appear in the text, but the illustrations themselves are missing. This is a shame, not least because one of the charms of A Honeymoon in Space is to see how people imagined spacesuits and spaceships in late Victorian times. If I recall correctly, the Astronef, as the spaceship is called, appeared to be constructed of cast iron, quite unlike the insubstantial flimflam of NASA's rocket ships.
