A rare limited edition by Robert Taylor featuring RAF Hurricanes at the height of the Battle of Britain.

Robert Taylor's magnificent study of the legendary Hurricane captures wonderfully the spirit of that cataclysmic aerial conflict fought so long ago. Nearest, young Pilot Officer Geoffrey Page, later to become one of the RAF's most highly decorated fighter Aces, powers his Mk I Hurricane over the country lane at the edge of the airfield, as he and his fellow No 56 Squadron pilots make their third scramble of the day. 

Robert Taylor's Limited Edition, Glorious Summer, is signed by six leading RAF Aces who flew Hurricanes in the Battle of Britain:
Air Commodore PETE BROTHERS
Wing Commander CHRISTOPHER 'Bunny' CURRANT
Group Captain DENNIS DAVID
Group Captain BILLY DRAKE
Wing Commander PAUL FARNES
Wing Commander GORDON SINCLAIR
