The Legend Begins Limited Edition Sam Lyons Print
While anyone familiar with aviation artist Sam Lyons’ work is well aware of his infatuation with the venerable Piper J-3 Cub, in The Legend Begins, Sam instead opts to illustrate a Cub of a different design: that produced by American Legend Aircraft Company. This 16″ x 22″ image depicts a brand-new Legend Cup climbing skyward shortly after departure from Woodstock, Georgia’s 2200-ft grass airstrip. The one-of-a-kind degree of amazingly authentic realism is characteristic of all of Lyons’ work, though this image features an extra element of authenticity – that’s Sam at the Cub’s controls! Per customer request, the drawing stars Sam himself providing flight instruction to the client’s son.
This picture is available as both an Artist Proof (limited to 25) and a signed & numbered Limited Edition print (limited to 250). Both versions are printed on acid-free paper, utilize first-rate permanent inks, and include a Certificate of Authenticity. Also offered as Prints on Canvas (limited to 15). A heartwarming representation of the joy of sharing the gift of aviation that’s guaranteed to make any pilot proud.
