Aw shucks. :oops:

Seriously, guys - check it out! Scott has outdone himself this time.

Great post Scott on some of the unknown behind the scenes work that goes into these great books. God could it really be 18 years ago that I got my first copy- (I think it was nov/dec 1990.) I remember handing my copy to David Tallichet at lunch at Flo's and then watching him scan through the pages with great interest. Got to get this and the new Rare Bear book.

Thanks Scoot, it was fun, and a pleasure helping on a project that I love. The B-17 will always be my fav.

Printing the order form and reaching for an envelope!

Likewise I wouldn't mind an author's autograph if your wrist isn't too tired! :D
