Tommy Leader by Robert Taylor
Overall print size: 25" wide x 18 1/2" high. Book size: 6" wide x 91/4" high
This outstanding limited edition print has been signed by leading Battle of Britain fighter pilots, issued with matching-numbered book 'Tommy Leader' by Tom Dalton-Morgan. Robert Taylor has miraculously captured the mood so typical of those long frantic days: Fresh from yet another hectic combat high over the south coast, Flight Lieutenant Tom Dalton-Morgan and his wingman, hurry their Hurricane MkIs of 43 Squadron back to base at Tangmere. More fuel, more ammunition, a sandwich and a cup of coffee, and with that familiar roar of Merlin engines they will be airborne again, ready to engage the next wave of Luftwaffe raiders. In a few fleeting weeks Tom Dalton-Morgan will be promoted to Squadron Commander.
The Signatures
Robert Taylor’s newly released limited edition print TOMMY LEADER was signed by Group Captain Tom Dalton-Morgan shortly before he died, together with two famous Battle of Britain fighter Aces, who all flew from Tangmere and Westhampnett. Now released in conjunction with the publication of Tom Dalton-Morgan’s autobiography of the same title, each print is signed by the artist Robert Taylor. Both print and book are issued with matching numbers.
