Description
British Second World War poster promoting the fighting abilities of the Handley-Page Halifax. This was one of a series of similar 'Bulletin' posters that highlighted the important of Allied aircraft.
The poster depicts a Halifax in flight in the upper section. The lower section features text about badly damaged Halifax that was returning from a raid at Mulheim. It explains it the damage it sustained during the raid, then just as it was reaching the coast of England, it was attached by a Messerschmitt (likely an ME.109), which, despite its damage, it still managed to down.
