A few years back, I managed to replace Colonies in Space with a nice, slightly-oversized hardcopy. The cellophane dustjacket suggests that it sojouned in a public library's collection before finding its way to a used bookstore.
One of the books in my old collection that I haven't replaced was a NASA publication that shared many of the same illustrations as Heppenheimer's book: Space Settlements: A Design Study.
However, as the link shows, NASA has in fact put the entire contents of that volume online -- including sixteen full-color paintings by Don Davis and several others.
Since so many of you enjoyed the Davis paintings...
