Red Tail By Request Limited Edition Sam Lyons Print
With his incredibly touching Red Tail By Request, world-renowned aviation artist Sam Lyons honors both a legendary American aircraft and a selfless group of aviators who courageously served their country. The 15″ x 30″ illustration portrays a P-51 Mustang adorned in the characteristic “Red Tail” livery of the celebrated Tuskegee Airmen.
