The 4th limited edition print in the series, “Aviation on the Home Front”; A tribute to the Northrop P-61 Black Widow, street baseball and Orange , California .
The air droned with the roar of new and exotic military aircraft. Suddenly, a shiny black airplane rocketed through the sky. The Northrop P-61, the Black Widow, was a big, powerful, brutish-looking fighter designed to prey on enemy night intruders. The dark sky was its habitat, and radar, a new mysterious invention, was its eyes. Like the black widow spider for which it was named, the P-61 was quick, potent and deadly. The children, for the first time seeing it fly over their town, would not forget the sight of this specter.
