Thank you, Shifty.
« on: April 09, 2009, 07:41:24 AM »
Once agian I find myself indebted with gratitute towards this man.  The mail came yesterday, a long cylindrical mailing tube, sent from Texas.  Low and behold inside was this beautiful 24" x 32" print by Martin Botha:

Focke Wulf Fw-190A-8 - 5./JG 300 "Kolle Alaaf - Red 19" Oberfeldwebel Ernst Schroder - Lobnitz, Germany - November 1944




Sorry about the flash flare.

Can't wait to frame, and get up over my pit.

Thank you Shifty.  Aces High could use another hundred men like you!

Your friend,

Stampf.

Glad to do it Stampf. The print needed a home with a real 190 driver.

Plus I needed wall space for this Christmas gift from my wife...




I might add I got that print a couple of years ago from Jester. I know he'd be happy it was now in the home of a FW-190
pilot. I hope you enjoy it for years to come bud.
