I have about 40 signed prints.  Mostly Robert Taylor and Robert Bailey.

Wow, that is quite a collection!

Ran out of wall space about 5 years ago.  Now I mostly collect them for the historical significance.  (I have it in my will that my collection goes to a WWII museum, Air Force Academy, etc.)
I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.

The last print I purchased cost me dearly!  Not only did I have to buy flowers, BUT I had to take my wife out to dinner.  :)

"The Decisive Moment" by Roy Grinnell.  Signed by 23 members of the AVG.


And I snuck this one in when she wasn't looking. :D

"One of Four That Day" by Grinnell.  Signed by Chuck Yeager.


BTW, Banshee, nice squad you belong to. :aok

I know its not quite the same as the others, but this is one I did after I saw a painting of it, so instead of Painting it I drew it in pencil.

Nice picture ink. :aok

The artist that did those drawings is Randall Scott.  Here is a few of his prints:



Thanks BigPlay for the offer.  I'm currently just looking for two more prints.  Both Taylor's.  "Eagles out of the Sun" and a Publisher Copy of the "Mighy Eighth-Outbound".  But since I'm in a holding pattern till my finances improve, I'm waiting.  I will contact you when the time is right. :aok

  I knew Karaya would pick a Polish Squadron!  :aok
