Multi signed Limited Edition Military print. Signed by Nicolas Trudgian (Artist), Colonel Robert M. Baker, Colonel Robert Bruce Porter and Colonel James E. Swett. Titled Battle For the Islands by Nicolas Trudgian colour print. Limited 49 of 600. Measures 38x23 inch appx. Corsairs of VMF 121 provide close air support to the US landings on Rendova, June 30, 1943. Fiercely contested, the invasion force was heavily attacked by Zero fighters and Mitsubishi G4M1 'Betty' bombers, flying from their base at Rabaul. Dog-fighting at tree-top height, VMF 121 Corsairs rip into a bunch of Betty bombers as they try to make their escape following their attack on shipping. On fire, the Betty in the foreground is doomed, and will shortly become one of 19 Japanese aircraft accounted for by VMF 121. Other Marine fighter units brought the total this day to a staggering 58 enemy aircraft destroyed. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
