GROUP CAPTAIN SIR DOUGLAS BADER 

by Robert Taylor

Robert’s Icons of Flight series has proved to be one of the most collectible compilations of aviation artworks published by the Military Gallery. Revolutionary in concept, all previous releases have quickly sold out. Perhaps unsurprising given that Robert remains the undisputed master of his genre and that this particular series of ground-breaking artworks is dedicated to some of the most famous aviators in history. This latest release is no exception – it features Group Captain Sir Douglas Bader, probably the best-known RAF fighter of the Second World War.

 ‘Sir Douglas was an extraordinary person.’ wrote Robert about their friendship. ‘Well into his sixties when I first met him, he always had a mischievous twinkle in his eye, and a ready wit....but it was his ability to lead and encourage that set him apart’.

Only 26 copies of this memorable edition are available worldwide. Each pair of drawings is exquisitely matted to full conservation standards in a single composition that includes museum-quality reproduction RAF wings plus a RARE and fully authenticated original autograph of the man himself;

  • Group Captain Sir DOUGLAS BADER CBE DSO* DFC* DL FRAeS.
