Del Prado SOL066 Cobber Kain: A Hurricane Pilot Before the Battle of Britain
Kain’s story belongs to No. 73 Squadron in France. The scarf, goggles and shoulder strap identify the figure; his June 1940 death rules out a Battle of Britain scene.
Del Prado SOL064 Joseph Joffre: Command, the Marne and the Date on the Label

Del Prado Obergefreiter Cav Recce Germany 1941 Review

Del Prado Dutch Militia Officer 1815 Review
