Mark, that's a very kind offer... but I would be in your debt and, with the way things are going right now, it would probably be quite some time before I could repay you. ![]() Thank you for offering, though. ![]() Fade to Black... |

No need for repayment, just continue to caretake from one set of good hands to the other, as I know you would. You guys let me know if there's anything I can help with. Glad to do it. Looks like some real priceless stuff there that hopefully we can keep together. |

These are still here. Trying to hold the Unique historic group, together. Legendary Test pilot Herb Fisher is in 18 of these negatives. (as shown in above sample-There are also some great large closeups of him in his flight test gear, and numerous others in P-40 cockpit) He was the only civilian pilot to be awarded the USAAF’s Air Medal. He had more time in P-40s, and flew more different P-40s, than any other pilot. he even participated in 50 combat missions, although a civilian. Then there are ALSO all the minute details to be gleaned by enlarging these Original large negatives from the WWII Curtiss Company files. |

SOLD! Happy to say that the set was sold INTACT, a while ago. I would have hated to break them up. I "think" the buyer was a Wixer... |
