DAMBUSTERS - THE IMPOSSIBLE MISSION
Book and Framed Print by Robert Taylor
Dinghy' Young, flying Lancaster AJ-A, heading through flak and machine gun fire towards the Möhne Dam at precisely 60ft, has just released his bouncing bomb 'Upkeep' – clearly visible against the huge splash created as it hits the water. The mighty Möhne Dam has but moments to live.
Published in 2006 this stunning piece has become one of the most collectible editions in Robert’s extensive portfolio and a ‘must have’ for Dambuster enthusiasts the world over.
This Collector's Edition print has been personally hand-signed by SEVEN veterans directly involved in the raid:
- Squadron Leader LES MUNRO CNZM DSO QSO DFC
- Sergeant FRED SUTHERLAND
- Flight Sergeant GRANT McDONALD
- Corporal BECK PARSONS
- Corporal KEN LUCAS
- Sergeant RAY GRAYSTON
- Squadron Leader GEORGE 'JOHNNY' JOHNSON MBE DFM
If that wasn't already special enough, our expert team have framed it to full conservation standards to include:
- A photograph, replica medal ribbon bar and the original wartime autograph of the leader of the raid; Wing Commander GUY GIBSON VC DSO DFC*
- Museum quality reproduction RAF wings
- A fragment of Dambusters Lancaster AJ-S 'Sugar' (ED865) flown on the night of the raid by P.O. Lewis Burpee
- A photograph and original signature of Commander-in-Chief of Bomber Command at the time of the raid; Marshall of the RAF Sir ARTHUR HARRIS Bt GCB OBE AFC
This is the first time we've been able to offer a Guy Gibson signature for quite some time!
