Hi all,
There is a company called Valor out of Colorado who specialize in paintings as well as authentic signatures, I waslucky enough pick up a painting of 506th screaming Eagles Parachuting over St. Mere Eglise, with church in background, a beautiful work of art it is but the nicest thing of all is the painting is hand signed by 16-18 Paratroopers who took part in the June 6th drop, all the signatures are signed with authenticity of each signature and a small piece of a actual parachute that was used in the drop is added to the painting, the chute was found years later in a barn near one of the drop zones, I own some nice dioramas, and a nice toy soldier collection and a few other WWII paintings but this piece will have a special place on the wall that I will cherish for along time...Sammy
