"THE VETERANS"
/// a fine art print by JAMES DIETZ \\\


All across England, they prepare to jump. The "Screaming Eagles," the "All-American" boys, the British "Red Devils," soon the troop carrier transports will whisk them away for World War II's largest airborne invasion to date: Operation Market Garden, a surprise jump to secure vital bridges and roadways in Holland. 

Among these units is Easy Company, 506th PIR, seen here. On this morning, the company's veterans give the new replacements a helping hand. Checking harnesses, uttering encouragements, the veterans' bravado will settle the rookies' nerves. Someday, when the new guys look back, they'll understand: it's just another day in a company of heroes.

WHY CHOOSE VALOR STUDIOS?

EXPERIENCE /// Since 1999 we've been creating the world's finest hand-autographed military art and collectibles. We are the only art publisher to conduct signings with Major Dick Winters and Captain Ron Speirs, and we’ve had the honor of working with former Presidents Bush ’41 and Bush ’43, General Hal Moore (We Were Soldiers), aviators Charlie Brown and Franz Stigler (A Higher Call), MOH recipient Tom Hudner (Devotion), and many more military heroes.

THE REAL DEAL /// Unlike so many autographs we see on Ebay, ours are hand-signed and we have the photos to prove it. Combine that with a reputation of being America's leader in military art publishing and you can shop with complete peace of mind.  

HONESTY /// Our veteran signers know the items they are autographing are for commercial purposes and they're paid generously for their efforts. We're proud to say that some of our veteran friends have been signing with us for 15+ years!

QUALITY /// All the products we sell on Ebay are new and guaranteed in mint condition. They are printed on museum grade papers with archival inks and with proper care (utilizing archival-grade storage methods) will last longer than any of us.

VALUE /// All our veteran signed items are limited in number. Once they sell out there is no creating more and as a result we often see our products appreciate in value.

FAMILY /// We're a small family business based outside of Denver, we have New York Times bestselling author Adam Makos ("A Higher Call" & "Spearhead") as our company president, his brother Bryan is our art director, and their sister Erica, our sales manager.

MADE HERE /// Our fine art lithos, giclees, photos and books are all printed in America. By buying a Valor Studios product, you're not only supporting an American small business and our veteran signers, but also craftsmen across the country.
