" AIR SUPERIORITY - VICTORY IN EUROPE EDITION ". "AIR SUPERIORITY" by the artist Robert Taylor is a signed and numbered limited edition print from an extremely small edition limited to ONLY 400 prints. This is the TWELVE signature VICTORY IN EUROPE EDITION.

It had taken almost six years of continual air fighting for the Allied air forces to attain complete and total air superiority over the Luftwaffe. At the outbreak of World War II the mighty German Air Force had appeared invincible but the ensuing Battle of Britain gave the Luftwaffe its first taste of what was to come. When America joined the war, bringing with her to Europe new types of fighters and bombers, the writing must have been clearly chalked on the wall of Hitler's bunker.

Unleashing the full power of the Eighth Air Force against the Third Reich by day and with the RAF Bomber Command's constant attacks by night, production in Germany's aircraft and munitions factories became fatally depleted. In the air the Allied fighter pilots were beginning to dominate the skies, and by the spring of 1945, had achieved complete air superiority. It had been a long and bitter struggle, fought with great courage and sacrifice.

In commemoration of the great air battles fought 60 years prior, this print celebrates the heroic deeds of the young flyers who overcame the odds to help bring the greatest war in history to a close. "AIR SUPERIORITY" catches the mood prevailing in the squadrons in April 1945, as P-51 Mustangs of the 357th Fighter Group sweep unopposed through the beautiful Rhine valley south of K61n. With the war virtually over and their air combat days almost complete, these pilots will soon be on their way home.

In addition to the artist Robert Taylor this print is signed by TWELVE highly prominent Aces and Pilots from the 357th Fighter Group. This print is in mint condition, has been stored flat, and has never been framed. It has an overall size of 35¾" x 23? " and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a descriptive four-page color brochure. GOOD LUCK AND THANKS FOR LOOKING!
