BTW gents....I looked at the Photo Collection you have posted at your Web Home.

The Photo titled target of opportunity.  I have a Proof of that, not a print but a Proof.

A Proof is what Prints are made from.

It hangs proudly in my livingroom....amongst other prints I've collected.

Ciaphas thanks.

The Proof (and prints) are titled "Target of Opportunity"

autographed by Lt. Col. Richard A. Hewitt 82nd FS CO.

It is marked 25/50 which means it is the 25th proof of 50.

The Artist: Marcus W. Stewart

I believe at purchase it was 125 to 150 dollars. (for the Proof)
quite reasonable imho.

A print would be somewhat cheaper.

BTW...the P47 in the picture is a depiction of a P47D25 (which is printed in small letters, bottom left of Proof)
