SUMMER STORM

Major Adolf Galland leads Me109Es of I/JG26 from Audembert airfield on an evening mission to the Thames Estuary as the Battle of Britain moves towards its climax, September 1940. Building like thunder clouds over the Channel, their approach will be plotted by radars of RAF Fighter Command and another confrontation is guaranteed.
This powerful print is personally autographed by the artist and THREE famous Luftwaffe Aces who flew in combat during the Battle of Britain. These include Major HANS-EKKEHARD BOB KC who was one of the leading Luftwaffe Aces during the battle with 14 victories and finished the war with a total of 60.
FAST COMPANY
In his distinctive yellow-tailed 'Black 1', the formidable Oberleutant Hans Dortenmann leads Fw190Ds of IV/JG26 as they engage a squadron of P-51 Mustangs, 19 March 1945. Wreaking havoc, Dortenmann downed two of his opponents in quick succession.
Joining the artist in signing this edition are THREE highly-regarded Luftwaffe Aces who flew the Fw190 in combat during WWII:
- Major ERICH RUDORFFER KC with Oakleaves & Swords - 222 victories
- Leutnant HUGO BROCH KC - 81 victories
- Feldwebel HERIBERT KOLLER GC - 49 victories
SLOWING THE RED TIDE
Fw190s of JG51 provide support to armour breaking out of the besieged 'Festung Königsberg' in East Prussia, February 1945. They are quickly engaged by Yak 3s of the famed Normandie-Niemen Group but the determined action of the Wehrmacht opened a life-saving corridor to the Baltic and was one of their last significant tactical victories on the Eastern Front.
Adding great authenticity, a staggering NINE highly-respected Knights Cross recipients have signed the edition - five pilots and four panzer tank commanders! These include:
- Generalleutnant GÜNTHER RALL KC with Oakleaves & Swords - Legendary Fighter Ace achieving a total of 275 victories to become the 3rd highest-scoring Ace in history
- Oberleutnant WALTER WOLFRUM KC - High-scoring Ace on the Eastern Front with 137 victories
TARGET LONDON

Heinkel-111 and Dornier bombers swarm over the East End towards the end of the Battle of Britain, summer 1940. They are met by a large force of RAF Hurricanes and Spitfires with one He-111 of KG53 being hit, but will struggle back to France. Many others were not so fortunate and, by the end of the day, the German losses were so great that Hitler postponed the invasion of Britain indefinitely.
This striking piece has been personally signed by the artist along with SIX Luftwaffe bomber and fighter pilots, all Knights Cross holders, including Oberst HAJO HERRMANN KC with Oakleaves and Swords - famous bomber pilot on He-111s who later founded the successful Night-fighter wing JG300
SEA WOLVES
Captain Erich Topp steers his German U-Boat towards the sanctuary of St Nazaire after another patrol during the gruelling Battle of the Atlantic in 1942. Above, a giant Focke Wulf 200 Condor and three Ju88Ds from KGr106 head back out to hostile waters to search for vulnerable Allied shipping for the submarine to attack.
Adding great authenticity, this atmospheric piece has been personally autographed by two highly-regarded German U-Boat Captains and two Luftwaffe pilots, including:
- Kapitänleutnant ALFRED EICK KC
- Korvettenkapitän JURGEN OSTEN KC
HEIA SAFARI
The 10th Panzer Division, Army Group 'Afrika' counter-attack Allied Forces around Tebourba in northern Tunisia, early Spring 1943. Overhead, air support is provided by the Ju87Ds of St.G3 and the formidable Fw190A fighters of II/JG2.
Joining the artist in signing this striking piece are SEVEN Knight's Cross Recipients who fought in the Desert Campaign, including:
- Leutnant GÜNTER HALM KC - the youngest member of the Afrika Corps to be awarded with the Knight's Cross
- Leutnant WILHELM NOLLER KC - Stuka Dive-bomber pilot who flew a total of 1058 combat missions
- Major ERICH RUDORFFER KC with Oak Leaves & Swords - scored several multiple-victories in a single day in Africa and went on to achieve a total of 222 victories

Above the dazzling white Alps a large formation of B-17Gs from the 483rd Bomb Group, 15th Air force are suddenly intercepted by a determined force of Fw190A-8's ‘Sturmbocke’ of IV.(Sturm)/JG3 ‘Udet’, 18 July 1944. Despite the brave efforts of the American escort fighters, fourteen of the B-17s were shot down in a devastating attack that lasted just fifteen minutes.
This memorable piece has been signed by the artist and TWO high-scoring Luftwaffe pilots who flew the Fw190 in combat:
- Major ERICH RUDORFFER KC with Oakleaves & Swords
- Leutnant HUGO BROCH KC
PEIPERS LAST ADVANCE
The prestigious 'King Tigers' commanded by the highly regarded Obersturmbannfuhrer Joachim ‘Jochen’ Peiper cautiously advance through the treacherous terrain of the Ardennes where strong opposition from three US Divisions await. This conflict would later become known as 'The Battle of The Bulge'.
Adding great authenticity, this powerful print has been signed by FIVE veterans who took part in the Battle of the Bulge including pilots and panzer tank crews, such as:
- Hauptmann ERWIN KRESSMANN KC
- Leutnant HUGO BROCH KC
DANGEROUS MOONLIGHT
On the night of 30 March 1944 more than 800 RAF bombers set off to raid Nurenberg but there were dangers lurking in the shadows. Martin Drewes, flying his Me110G, scrambles to meet them and sets his sights on his first target, a Lancaster from 467 Australian Sqn.
This stunning print has been authenticated by TWO Luftwaffe Night-Fighters including the famous Ace depicted:
- Major MARTIN DREWES KC with Oakleaves
- Fahnenjunker-Feldwebel ANTON HEINEMANN KC
