In 1940 Adolf Galland took command of JG-26 and transformed the unit into an elite squadron and the Luftwaffe’s best known Fighter Wing. For the next two years they duelled daily over northern France with the very best of the RAF who nicknamed them the ‘Abbeville Boys’.

One of Robert’s most iconic pieces features the outstanding Galland leading a loose formation of Me109F’s at the height of their success during the Battle of Britain, as they thunder from their base in the Pas de Calais.

Originally published in the late-1980s, this incredibly RARE print is highly sought after on the Secondary Market so we’re delighted to have just ONE COPY available.

This special copy has been personally signed by Galland along with three other recipients of the Knight’s Cross, and expertly framed to full conservation standards to include an further eleven original autographs of Luftwaffe pilots and Aces who flew Me109s in combat during the Second World War PLUS a fragment of Me109 that crashed in East Sussex on 28 October 1940.
