EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the iconic Boeing B-17G Fortress N3703G - TANKER number 78, famously painted as the legendary "Memphis Belle" for the movie of the same name. The aircraft, with its distinctive markings and historical significance, is a true symbol of American aviation history.
Originally built as a B-17G-85-DL Fortress with msn 44-83546, this particular plane was transformed into Tanker number 78 and given the appearance of the famous Memphis Belle for its role in the film industry. The attention to detail in replicating the original markings is truly remarkable, showcasing both the craftsmanship of those involved in creating movie props and honoring the legacy of this historic aircraft.
The image captures a moment frozen in time from around the 1970s when this unique aircraft took flight once again on screen as part of cinematic history. Its presence evokes feelings of nostalgia and admiration for all who have an appreciation for vintage planes and their role in shaping our world.
Displayed proudly by The Tony Lovelock Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, this print serves as a reminder of not only past achievements in aviation but also pays tribute to those who served bravely during wartime missions.
