BLANK CARD featuring the painting
PHANTOM & ARK ROYAL by Philip E. West
Two icons of the Royal Navy are seen together some time in the 1970s as a McDonnell Douglas Phantom II leaves the decks of HMS Ark Royal, the only British carrier equipped to carry them. Both were the victims of huge political controversy as the F-4 was procured to replace cancelled British projects and the “Ark” was decommissioned at a time of great change and downsizing for the Navy.
For anyone serving in the navy during the 1970s, this card would make an ideal Birthday card.
THE CARD IS 7" x 5" (178mm x 127mm)
