Hi,

My interest is for the build of a model kit in 1/48 with the Tamiya kit and decals from Albatros.
One of my friend make the diorama to be with the Lanc.

We would like to make a scene of the WW2.

I love the Lanc, i have 6 kits in 1/48 and some many books about his history.

Gentlemen,

I have a copy print showing the nose section and artwork of PICADDILLY PRINCESS. This picture was published in one of Larry Milberry's book on the RCAF in WWII. I think it was the book on the RCAF 60 year anniversary?

Will return home to Winnipeg in September and can have a print made for you from my copy negatives. I loaned the original print to someone in Ontario who plans producing a book on aircraft nose art. That was five years ago!

Yours very truly,
