by Robert Taylor
Overall Print Size: 36" x 24"
Edition Size: 500
In northern France in the late autumn of 1941, having just returned to their temporary airstrip in the region of St. Omer, Luftwaffe pilots of JG-26 excitedly debrief their recent encounter with Spitfires and Hurricanes, fought high over the Channel coast. The gleaming new Me109F's are discreetly parked under trees on the edge the airfield, providing some cover from low-level surprise attacks. While ground crews busily prepare the Wing's Me109s for another mission, a group of the exciting new Fw190A fighters taxi out.
In addition to the artist this print was individually signed by five (5) Luftwaffe Aces who contested the great air battles with pilots of the RAF on the infamous Channel Front, 1940-1941:
- Oberfeldwebel HEINZ MARQUARDT
- Oberst JOHANNES NAUMANN
- Oberleutnant ERHARD NIPPA
- Major GERHARD SCHÖPFEL
- Oberleutnant GÜNTER SEEGER
