Description
DH Mosquito B Mk25 – The Story Behind the Print
Michael Rondot’s winter scene portrays Mosquito B.Mk25 KB604, coded 6T-K, returning to RAF Downham Market in November 1944 following a bombing mission to Berlin.
The aircraft was a favourite of Flight Lieutenant Colin Bell and his navigator Flight Lieutenant Douglas Redmond during their tour of 50 missions with the Pathfinder and Light Night Striking Force of RAF Bomber Command.
The Mosquito’s combination of speed and altitude allowed it to undertake roles ranging from bombing and pathfinding to night fighting, maritime strike and photographic reconnaissance.
The edition is signed by Michael Rondot and three veteran Mosquito pilots: Colin Bell DFC, George Dunn DFC and Harry Reed DFC. A few Artist’s Proofs and Remarque copies additionally carry the signatures of John Trotman DFC & Bar and Des Curtis DFC, as detailed above.
