Synopsis
Aircraft nose art has long been a military institution. First appearing in the form of a sea monster on the front of an Italian flying boat in 1913, through WWII, Vietnam, and on to today, Nose Art catalogs and presents it all. Hundreds of detailed illustrations through the decades give the full picture of the evolution and history of these mini-murals. From early shark and tiger mouths below front propellers, to historical logos and Loony Toons characters, to the modern banning of nude pinups, author Allan Burney explores this incredible subject in detail., Nose art was a form of artistic expression for pilots and this book is an homage to their creativity.

  • Logical, but dull. Meaning:

    Book covers the air war and shows the boys that make the sacrifice.
