FIGHT FOR THE SKY - Framed Collector's Piece
by Robert Taylor
Robert's wonderfully realistic piece captures the very essence of an epic day during the Battle of Britain in the summer of 1940. A Heinkel has been brought down, one of many never to make it home on this bright and sunny day.
As the Luftwaffe bomber's crew emerge from their broken aircraft, relieved to have survived the crash-landing, a Mk.I Spitfire from 66 Sqn roars low overhead to verify another victory.
One of the most outstanding Portfolios ever released by Robert's publishers, this RARE Millennium Proof was personally signed on release in 2000 by a staggering collection of Battle of Britain pilots, with the companion print DEFIANT TO THE LAST also signed by two Defiant crew!
