Robert Taylor THE CHANNEL DASH Adolf Galland + 4 Signed Aviation Art Print. CONDITION: Has a number of thin creases. 6 spots in the image - 3 spots in the signature border - and quite a few in the white border.
They are not noticeable when you first look at the print. When you pick it up, hold it in the right light, and start searching, you can find them. This print is a great copy for framing.Once framed, you will have to search right up next to the glass to find the defects, and none will be visible from a normal viewing distance. Make sure to see the pictures for samples of the defects, taken in the right lighting to make them visible. The print has never been framed, and is completely unfaded.
Once its framed and hanging on your wall. No one is likely to tell the difference between this print and a mint copy. SIZE: 25 by 33 inches. SIGNATURES: Hand-signed and numbered in pencil by the artist Robert Taylor and 5 German Air & Naval Officers who lived the Channel Dash. Generalleutnant ADOLF GALLAND KC WITH OAK LEAVES SWORDS AND DIAMONDS.Oberleutnant ADOLF GLUNZ KC WITH OAK LEAVES. Certificate of Authenticity is included.
THIS PRINT HAS DAMAGE - SO BE SURE TO READ THE CONDITION SECTION AND EXAMINE THE PHOTOS CLOSELY. I have done my best to describe the defects so you will not be unpleasantly surprised. The two photos show the most noticeable creases. The rest are less severe. At dawn on 12 February 1942 a German battle fleet rounded the Cherbourg peninsula.
Undetected, the battlecruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, together with the cruiser Prinz Eugen and supporting vessels, had escaped from the French port of Brest, and were making an audacious dash - in broad daylight and under the noses of the enemy - to the safety of the Elbe Estuary. But first they must sail through the Straits of Dover, one of the narrowest and most heavily defended straits in the world. Everything depended on surprise - and air cover. Given the job of providing that air cover was one of Hitlers youngest Generals, Adolf Galland, and his Messerschmitt Me109's of JG-2. Never, perhaps, has such a significant air-sea operation been portrayed with such style as in this classic Robert Taylor work. Originally created as the first in the famous Galland Trilogy, it has been personally signed by Adolf Galland and veterans of Operation Cerberus. It remains one of the most highly desired and collectable limited editions ever published.Never framed, stored flat in a non-smoking, climate-controlled environment. Check my feedback - it's excellent. I ask for the same consideration from you. I will pack your print carefully so it arrives undamaged.
