American Eagle Squadron Prints info needed
« on: May 02, 2023, 08:45:52 AM »
I have two framed prints I won as side items from an online auction last year.
I do not know much about them except they might be related to a reunion.
Both prints have pilot signatures the look like they were copied into the prints..
I will post images as soon as I can.

Thanks for any information!

You need to get in touch with +Tiff/Guppy35/whatever his current handle is.  He knows everything there is to know about RAF.  My guess is that these are Eagle Squadron signed prints, but I have no foundation for that guess.

My photos are more washed out than in real life..they are in the glass frames they were shipped to me in.

I located this thread from 2015 which seems to mention the prints as something from a reunion in the 80's that an airforce museum in Dayton used to sell maybe?

I am hoping an American Eagle Squadron enthusiast here might confirm that

Thanks for the information!
