Question about Chautauqua.  The photo below, compared with other photos, makes it seem like the nose art was painted on both sides of the aircraft.  I find that hard to believe, and think its more likely the image is reversed.



What do you guys think?

I believe your right looking at the small brush marks around the very edge it is a perfect match as the other side.  That would be near impossible to reproduce.

Look at the prop blade angle.  That will tell you for certain.

That was my thought as well.

The image is reversed.

Not a great series of images that help with the nose art.
