This limited edition print is a profile of one of two aircraft flown by Col. Fred
J. Christensen, Jr., 62nd FS/56th FG. Col. Christensen had the unique honor
of being the first pilot in the 8th Air Force to shoot down 6 planes in a single
mission. He is one of an exclusive group of people to become an Ace in a
day. He ended the war with 21.5 victories in aerial combat.
The markings on the aircraft replicate in detail, those actually displayed on
16mm Color film shot by Col. Christensen at both Halesworth and Boxted,
in England during the war. In some cases, these markings conflict with
popular contemporary references of these aircraft, due to the scarcity of
period color images.
Each print is signed by Col. Christensen, as well as signed and numbered
by the artist. The print includes a Certificate of Authenticity, bearing an
image of Col. Christensen signing the print. These will not be reprinted.
