Large size WW2/Cold War aircraft silhouette from the date shown.

One of the very best aircraft of WW2 with superb speed, range, and load carrying ability. It was used in a variety roles, bomber, fighter bomber, photo reconnaissance, and even operated a passenger service between neutral Sweden and Britain, flying over occupied Europe. Made almost entirely of wood, the Mosquito was one of the best.

This silhouette has some extensive “battle damage” along the upper right edge. This does not reach the silhouette and in our opinion could be hidden under a mount prior to framing. There is one central fold, and a few age related stains and dirt etc – see images
