Description:
The framed and autographed Enola Gay photo of the plane’s iconic nose art is a must-own for WWII collectors. The paintings on a plane are an artistic representation of the pilot, the crew, and the times. The nose art war plane photo is a classic piece of WWII art that should have a place on your wall. The Enola Gay photo shows the plane with the name given to the B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the first atomic bomb, code-named “Little Boy”, to be used in war, by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) in the attack on Hiroshima, Japan on 6 August 1945, just before the end of World War II. As documented in a war plane photo, due to the nuclear device’s role in the atomic bombings of Japan, the bomb’s name has become synonymous with the bombings themselves. The B-29 was named after Enola Gay Tibbets, who was the mother of the pilot, Paul Tibbets. The Enola Gay military plane photo is a black-and-white photograph that is hand-signed by Van Kirk and Jeppson, along with B29 skin relic, matted and framed in wood under glass. Certificate of authenticity included. Shop for the Enola Gay photo that depicts the nose art of the aircraft famed for dropping the first atomic bomb, and it features an autograph and frame.
