Checking Out – The Story Behind the Print
Anthony Saunders’ Checking Out portrays P-51 Mustangs of the 352nd Fighter Group preparing to leave Bodney on an escort mission in early 1945.
The scene captures the challenge of operating from wartime England, where winter fog, ice, snow and low cloud could disrupt flying as effectively as enemy action.
By this stage of the war, the long-range P-51 had become central to Eighth Air Force fighter operations, escorting bomber formations deep into Germany and increasingly ranging ahead of them as Allied air power intensified.
Each print is signed by Anthony Saunders.
