This print is a dramatic and completely authentic portrayal of Lt. Col. James H. Doolittle’s B-25 approaching the coast of Japan. Signed in the plate by the Doolittle Raiders, and pencil signed in the border by the senior surviving crew member from each plane, including General Doolittle.

After detailed interviews and in-depth research, aviation artist William S Phillips has re-created the sea, coastline and weather conditions just as they existed on April 18, 1942. Likewise, General Doolittle’s aircraft, No. 40-2344, is completely authentic.

This extremely rare print (#316/1250), which was released in 1983, is hand-signed by 16 pilots including General Doolittle It is deluxely framed and the colors are still rich and vibrant like they were over 34 years ago!
