Speaking of Collier's, they did plenty of well-illustrated futurism for the home reader and one of the most famous was the multi-issue Man Will Conquer Space Soon! series and related articles. The Houston section of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics reprinted them, starting with their July/August 2012 newsletter, available in PDF form at this link.
These were expanded into a series of profusely-illustrated large-format books and inspired three Walt Disney programs, and can be thought of as ancestors to the Apollo program, the Space Shuttle and SpaceX's "Starship" rocket.
