Great posting...Should any of you be lucky enough to visit our capital in Ottawa, and more specifically the new Canadian War museum, there is a outstanding display of original, WW2 untouched Bomber nose art hanging on the wall. The bomber sections were cut mostly from Wellington and Halifax heavy bombers serving in the RCAF and were rescued from the scrapper's torch. I believe that the person was a war correspondant who visited many of the surplus plane scrapping yeards in Europe and picked out 17 or so of what he thought were the most interesting examples of nose art. They were cut from the planes by the scrappers and he had the pieces sent back to Canada. Later his family donated the sections to the museum. They are very large and nice and some have rivit sections and actual perplex windows...cheers, Ryan
