Battle Above Dover by Adrian Rigby on 29th July 1904, the Luftwaffe launched what they believed was a
surprise attack on the port of Dover and the shipping in the area. RAF
controllers however were quick to react and Spitfire from Manston along
with twelve Hurricanes from Hawkinge intercepted nearly fifty Stukas and
no less than eighty fighter escorts. the battle was intense and made even more dangerous for the RAF by
the heavy flak, which the gunners of Dover used to some success, shooting
two Stukas out of the sky. at the end of the action, seven German aircraft
were lost to just one Spitfire. more significantly, Dover was spared
serious damage and no ships were lost. Signed by Wing Commander K W MacKenzie

| Desperate Measures by Ivan Berryman. Having already registered two victories since his arrival at 501 Sqn in the Autumn of 1940, Plt Off K W Mackenzie found himself again in action against some Messerschmitt Bf.109s on 7th October, sharing in the destruction of one before vigorously pursuing another as it turned to head out across the Channel. With his ammunition exhausted, Mackenzie was determined not to let the interloper escape and placed his Hurricane’s starboard wing over the tail of the Bf.109, bringing it violently down and severing the tail of the German fighter which plunged uncontrollably into the sea. With his own wingtip missing from the impact and his engine now damaged by rounds from other pursuing German aircraft, Mackenzie limped his crippled Hurricane over the cliffs near Folkestone, where he crash-landed. He survived the incident, albeit with some facial injuries sustained when he was thrown against the gunsight, and was awarded the DFC for his gallantry. Limited edition of 30 giclee paper prints.

| Open Assault by Robert Taylor. The Junkers Ju87 Sturzkampfbomber, known to the British simply as the Stuka, had already acquired a deadly reputation across Europe, its siren screaming as the ungainly dive-bomber struck terror into the hearts of those below. In 1940 its pilots crossed the Channel with their grim-looking aircraft to terrorise the southern towns and ports of England. Robert Taylors painting Open Assault, depicts Hurricanes of 501 Squadron attacking a force of Ju87 Stukas as they dive-bomb naval vessels and installations in the port of Dover on 29 July 1940. High explosive bombs detonate within the sheltered anchorage as escorting Bf109s from JG51 race in to protect their lumbering charges. Four Stukas and two Me109s are despatched, for the loss of just one RAF aircraft. Signed limited edition of 400 prints. Paper size 33 inches x 25 inches (83cm x 64cm). Price £200.00 Signed by
