CO-SIGNED BY BOB HOOVER! This is the second print Sam has produced that features a Bob Hoover airplane and signature. The first starred Bob’s Shrike Commander. This one immortalizes Bob’s Spitfire. On February 9, 1944, future aviation legend Bob Hoover was flying his supermarine Spitfire Mk. Vc. He and his four-plane-formation were charged with search and destroy, attacking enemy ships and shooting up trains along the French and Italian coasts from Cannes to Genoa. The moment captured by “Hoover’s Fighting Spitfire” is shortly before Bob was shot down and captured. (Don’t worry he escaped in an amazing feat of bravery and daring!) The 18” x 22.5” prints are available in a special Limited Edition size of 300 Signed & Numbered and 30 Artist Proofs. If framed it will consist of double mats with cut-outs to show signatures, plaque and genuine oak frame.

> Hoover's Maneuver
SOLD OUT! CO-SIGNED BY BOB HOOVER! Living aviation legend Bob Hoover is captured during one of his most crowd-pleasing moments. Bob is taking his famous Shrike Commander through a hold-your-breath airshow routine. He’s doing a Cuban-8 with one engine shut down and the prop feathered. In his typically modest way Bob said “The Cuban-8 is no big deal. it’s easy.” Maybe it’s easy if you’re Bob Hoover who performed his first Cuban-8 at the tender age of 18. He waited until he was a seasoned 20-year-old before shutting off one engine while doing his routine. Now Bob is 83 years young! The 18” x 22.5” prints are available in a special Limited Edition size of 200 Signed & Numbered (SOLD OUT) and 30 Artist Proofs (SOLD OUT). The framed print consists of double mats with cut-outs to show signatures, plaque and black wood frame.
