ValiantWomen Heroes of World War Two!
Our print honors WASP Pilot Helen Snapp. Helen flew many aircraft for the U.S. Army Air Corp during the war, she even helped trained many of our men to become pilots! At the end of the war Helen was recruited to help in the first program using radio-controlled aircraft. One weekend when Helen was trying to get back to her airfield from South Florida to Georgia, she was given a ride in the actual Memphis Belle.
The crew of men who were flying the Belle at the time were not the original crew of the Belle. They were new pilots who were flying the bomber around the United States to help raise money for War Bonds. The Memphis Belle was in Miami when Helen got on the Bomber to get a free ride back to her base in Georgia. When the bomber took off the pilots begged Helen to fly the bomber because they were hung over! They were stupid the night before, so Helen flew the Memphis Belle from Miami to Jacksonville, Florida.NOW THAT is a GREAT STORY!
Helen has autographed EACH of my 350 prints with a graphic pencil. EACH autograph was actually signed by the woman with ME sitting next to HER! It was an honor to have worked with the WASP pilots. These make great gifts for the lady pilots in your life.These are great prints for a young girls room. PLUS every airport of every size everywhere should have one of these prints hanging some where at their airport even if it is in the wash rooms! Buy yours now! Print size is 12x18\" Published on heavy duty museum paper.
I am an aviation artist and historian. I have worked with well over one hundred pilots from World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the present day Desert Wars. We have published 85 different poster prints. We have also published seventy-five limited editions prints that have been autographed by the pilots. I have something for everyone from Messerschmitt’s to Mustangs and F4 Phantoms as well as the F-14 Tom Cat. I have worked with American pilots of all services. I have also worked with British, German, Japanese and Italian fighter and bomber pilots. Each and every pilot saw combat. We also have worked with the Tuskegee Airmen, The WASP, and the A.V.G.
