Description
A limited edition print by Robert Taylor issued with matching numbered book ‘Tommy Leader’ by Group Captain Tom Dalton-Morgan. Fresh from yet another hectic combat high over the south coast, Flight Lieutenant Tom Dalton-Morgan and his wingman, hurry their Hurricane MkIs of 43 Squadron back to base at Tangmere.
In the few years before he passed away, Group Captain Tom Dalton-Morgan became a very close friend of Aces High and he in fact finished writing his book in our Gallery. Now this long awaited book is released and we are proud to be launching it at the Duxford Airshow on May 20th. The special edition is released with an outstanding new print by Robert Taylor that was specially commissioned and we expect it to sell quickly, so please place your order in advance to secure your copy.
