HARTMANN TRIBUTE - Framed Collector's Piece
by Robert Taylor
Erich Hartmann, the highest-scoring Ace in the history of aerial combat, is shown here in his Me109G-4 in the spring of 1943 during the Kuban battle in Southern Russia after Russian Sturmoviks have made a determined attack on a German Panzer division. Luftwaffe Me109s from JG-52 have beaten off the attack, and the German tanks are on the move again. In the foreground, the crew of a Russian Sturmovik evacuate their stricken aircraft, while overhead a jubilant Hartmann and parts of his unit make a low pass to celebrate their victory.
It’s hardly surprising that the edition sold out almost immediately on release in 1994 but we’re delighted to have ONE COPY ONLY that is not only signed by Hartmann, but a total of FIFTEEN pilots who flew with JG-52 during World War II and were all recipients of the Knight’s Cross:
