This impressive print features the Lancaster's at the Dambusters Raid which took place on the night of the 16th May 1943.
Produced exclusively as a print for The Westminster Collection from a painting by renowned aviation artist Anthony Saunders, the “Breaking the Möhne” Dambusters 65th Anniversary Limited Edition Print carries two significant signatures: of the artist and current Lancaster pilot Stuart Reid.
Adding an extra touch of distinction and collector appeal - your print has been flown on board Avro Lancaster PA474. This is one of only two airworthy Lancaster's left in the world. 2008 is the 65th anniversary of the raid and the edition is strictly limited to 1,943 prints - marking the year of the raid. In addition, this year is the 90th anniversary of the founding of the RAF, further stoking collector interest.
The “Breaking the Möhne” Dambusters 65th Anniversary Limited Edition Print comes professionally framed and ready to hang. On the reverse is a Certificate of Authenticity confirming the number of the print within the edition limit, as well as the prints "Flown on Board" status.
This is both a beautiful work of art, and an inspiring conversation piece, capturing a moment in time when Britain's fate hung in the balance.
