I had held off purchasing any Super Bowl LVIII collectibles or memorabilia until I found something that I thought was just “awesome”. When I saw this SI Cover, I knew I had to have it. Honestly it’s one of the best photos I’ve ever seen. Along with the captions it captures what Super Bowl LVIII was all about. Your Photog was in the right place at the right time and did a great job of capturing what Chiefs fans all across the country felt at that moment. As you can see I had the perfect place for it, it makes this wall complete and up to date.
Artist's Description
0130 on 17 May 1943: Cooler 6 begins attack. Flt Lt Dave Shannon (RAAF) flying Lancaster Type 464 ED929/G, AJ-L (nicknamed "L for Leather"), makes the first run at the undefended Eder Dam during 617 Squadron's Operation Chastise, watched by mission leader Wing Cdr Guy Gibson in AJ-G. The downward-pointing Aldis lamps, offset to the right, were to gauge the 60ft approach height. The valley contours make it extremely difficult to attain the tight release parameters so bomb aimer Flt Sgt Len Sumpter does not yet drop the Upkeep revolving depth charge ("bouncing bomb").
Dam reconstructed from a photo by Stephen Thomas and aircraft are extensive reworkings of photos by Ronnie Macdonald and Tony Hisgett (all with permission).
Monochrome version. Colour also available.
