About the Item

To see our other original vintage propaganda posters, scroll down to "More from this Seller" and below it click on "See all from this Seller" - or send us a message if you cannot find the poster you want. US Naval Aviation Training Division Grumman F6F Hellcat - USA Carrier-based fighter aeroplane Aeroplane identification poster, 1943 63x47cm A particularly unusual style of aeroplane identification poster, owing to the very arty images. Most such posters rely on very plain silhouettes, this series - and we have several in this series - have a much more arty approach to the task with shading and an interesting angle view. The Grumman Hellcat was developed for the US Navy for the latter half of World War 2, becoming the dominant carrier-based aircraft being able to outperform the A6M Mitsubishi Zero. 12,275 were built in just over two years, being credited with 5,223 enemy kills - more than any other Allied naval aircraft.
