Holding the record for the most-produced combat aircraft in American history, the B-24 Liberator was a widely used World War II strategic bomber. Compared to its counterpart bomber, the B-17, the B-24 Liberator had greater top speed and range, with a slightly larger bomb load. It did have some flaws in handling characteristics and survivability, but it was widely used thanks to its strategic capabilities.
This particular model is signed by Walter Stewart, a B-24 pilot with 236 hours of combat flight, and its personal touch makes it a must-have for any collector.
