Lightning Strike by Robert Taylor signed by WWII P-38 Fighter Aces

Description

THE WORLD’S FOREMOST AVIATION ARTIST ROBERT TAYLOR COMMEMORATES ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL FIGHTER AIRCRAFT OF WWII
LIGHTNING STRIKE
by Robert Taylor
In this powerful and dramatic painting, Robert Taylor depicts a pair of P-38 Lockheed Lightnings heading out at 30,000 feet on a long range strike.
With a top speed in excess of 400 mph the P-38 was one of the fastest aircraft in WWII and one of the most essential and successful.
Originally released in 1987 the print edition immediately sold out and is now very much sought after on the secondary market.
In addition to Robert Taylor’s undoubted ability, the added desirability of this stunning piece has much to do with the four, very famous P-38 Aces who personally autographed the print.
