THUNDERHEADS OVER RIDGEWELL
One aircraft, more than any other, came to symbolise the great bombing campaign of the USAAF in Europe during World War Two, and in his spectacular new painting Robert Taylor captures the magnificence of Boeing's legendary B-17 Flying Fortress. In his inimitable style the artist brings to life an exact wartime scene, a battle-damaged aircraft making apparent the fearsome task tackled daily by those who flew the hazardous missions to occupied Europe during the greatest air war ever fought. The Mighty Eighth Edition is issued with matching numbered pencil drawing companion print, 'Another Mission Completed.'

TITANIC - LAST FAREWELL
Escorted by a bustling flotilla of pleasure craft, the RMS Titanic - the world's newest and largest liner - creates a majestic sight as she departs Southampton Water at the start of her fateful maiden voyage to New York, 10 April 1912.

TOP ACE
The historical importance of this extremely limited edition is highlighted by the addition of rare ORIGINAL autographs within the conservation matting, including Gabby Gabreski and a further ten highly-regarded pilots who flew with the 56th FG. Between them they achieved over 100 victories to help make the 56th the USAAF's top-scoring fighter group of the war.

TOP BOUNCE
Flight Lieutenant Don Kingaby and the pilots of 64 Squadron dive to attack
a group of Fw190s that have been spotted about 2,000ft below them near Boulogne,
30 July 1942. The ensuing dogfight was the first-ever encounter between

TOWARDS NIGHT'S DARKNESS
As the setting sun casts a golden glow, a group of Lancasters from 576 Squadron form up after departing from their Lincolnshire base at the start of a raid into Germany in late 1944. The lead aircraft UL-I (LM227) was one of only a handful of Lancasters to complete 100 operational sorties.
