Hi there

Welcome to my auction of b17 nose art.

To start off with I must say that it’s obviously not original as if it was ,she would be in a museum.

I’ve had this piece for a number of years now and due to its size and the misses not liking it that much it’s time to let it go to a new home.

It measures 2 ft by 3 ft (60 x 90 cm) .

Apparently it was commissioned for a Levi’s advert in the early 80’s but I’ve no evidence of that.

I can say that it is extremely well painted with authentic bullet holes and a really nice patina.

It’s created on ,what I believe to be ,an old Land Rover bonnet so is on an aluminium sheet with rivets and support spars behind ( as seen in the pics) to give the impression of a part of aero skin.

Would make a great addition to any man/woman cave ,American of aeroplane themed bar.

This isn’t a home made job but a professionally painted advertising prop so I have set the reserve accordingly.

It’s not that heavy so postage will be around £25 .

Happy bidding
