This is one of my favorite paintings and is a scene that must have happened hundreds of times during WWII. P-51 Mustangs try and help a struggling B-17 back to base and although it doesn't quite make it to the runway, the crew are able to get it down just short, and all of them will live to fight another day. Outstandingautographs make this a classic piece.
Please note:The prints in my store are hand-signed by the veterans involved in the painting so the signatures are original autographs and not reproductions.The certificate of authenticity is always included.CONDITION:My listings are guaranteed to be in perfect condition unless it is clearly specified otherwise in the description.
