Limited Edition First Victory Print Signed by WWI Ace George Vaughn

This Limited Edition Print depicts Capt. George Vaughn's first victory in an S.E.5a biplane, on June 16th, 1918, over Beaucourt, France. In Vaughn's own words, "I remember my first combat victory. The Pfalz I was engaged with got a long burst into my tail before I knew he was even in the sky. That was a great lesson never to be forgotten, always see the other fellow first and never let him see you first. Fortunately, his aim was quite poor and after that it was only the routine we had learned in combat school. Eventually he turned for home. I chased him, which wasn't the right thing to do as it turned out. When I finally caught up with him I was quite far into German territory and my flight commander really read me off later, because he didn't relish being pulled that far into Germany just to watch over me. The Pfalz was confirmed by people in the squadron and on the ground. He fell in flames." Each Print is numbered and includes a Certificate of Authenticity and signed by the late George Vaughn and artist Roy Grinnell. Measures about 30”w x 24”h.
