I'm not interested in the prints, but I'd love to see some pictures of the collection.

I have searched quite a bit and not found them online.

I did however, get to look at some pretty awesome art in my search. (and some much better stuff, in my opinion.)

I would be up for that if you want to do it.

From this thread and PM's recieved; almost all of the prints are spoken for.

Firebug is going to magically turn them into some form of digital media, so you can see them. That will be about 7-10 days. Then I will work on delivering/mailing them.

Thanks for the interest.

Sorry I have yet to respond to the PM's over the last 24 hours. Something odd with internet here today.

Perhaps Aeneas can confirm, but I have been able to find a couple images by a Donald Anderson. These might not be part of Aeneas's collection but they may reflect the style of image.

(Different artist so placed behind spoiler tags)

Much different. He was embedded with the squadrons. The set of prints I have he made from sketches he drew as the action or event unfolded. He sketched and took notes, then painted from the sketches.

Looks like those are more posed, more polished for sure. You will see shortly. These are rougher, I dont know how to explain it; like they are unfinished almost.

I've got a friend who's a Military Historian, and this is the sort of thing he'd absolutely be over the moon for, if you have any left that are going asking, I'm sure he'd love any one of them.
