    Description

    A LIMITED EDITION BY ONE OF THE WORLD’S FOREMOST AVIATION ARTISTS PAYING TRIBUTE TO THE LEGENDARY DOOLITTLE RAIDERS
    INTO THE TEETH OF THE WIND
    By Robert Taylor
    Bound for Tokyo, Lieutenant Colonel Jimmy Doolittle launches his B-25 Mitchell from the heaving
    deck of the carrier USS Hornet on the morning of 18 April, 1942.
    In one of his most dramatic paintings Robert Taylor pays tribute to the men that bravely carried out this iconic mission and the prints are autographed by a staggering number of the legendary Doolittle Raiders:
    Flying their sixteen-bomber force on a long distance one-way mission, the Doolittle Raiders completed the first strike on Imperial Japan since the infamous attack on Pearl Harbor four months earlier. Together, they completed one of the most audacious air raids in aviation history.
