The P-38 Photos You Asked for..........

Thu Feb 09, 2006 3:17 am

Here's some more P-38 shots. As for a book, how big would a book be with 15,000 photos in it? Maybe Tim Savage will want to do a special edition someday!

That'd be quite a book!!! But it would be easier on you if you released it in
a series. Given your knowledge...I think it would be a "page burner" and
a major cornerstone reference! :wink:

Great snaps Jack, keep'em coming!!!

Wow....

Tks for sharing.

These represent how many years of accumulation ? Just by curiosity.

Oh, say 25 years give or take.

Those are very cool. Thanks.

Looks like somebody left a big ole thumbprint on that last one (Corbett photo).

Awesome as always, Jack! Now, dig me up some more 459 FS Twin Dragons stuff besides what I got from you, and what John Stanaway has published in FlyPast and his Peter-Three-Eight book.

Your very large and comprehensive collection reminds me of my former acquaintance with the WORLD'S top private Disney collector. After 50 years of nonstop collecting, words like unbelievable, and millions of dollars spent (his collection was ~$10 million appraised value, he said), wouldn't even begin to describe this gentleman's collection ... I (stupidly) asked him if he had ever seen the "Ultimate Collectors" show which comes on every now and then, and he smiled and said, "I've been ON THE SHOW [like 3 or 4 times]!"

So, Jack, when will we see YOU on the show?? 8)
