Description
This lot features a Special Edition Royal Air Force commemorative card bearing the original autograph of Flight Sergeant Ron Farmborough. The card is dedicated to the Supermarine Spitfire and No. 33 Squadron, featuring the squadron motto Loyalty. Flight Sergeant Farmborough was a veteran pilot who flew Spitfires with No. 33 Squadron during the North African Desert campaign. Historically, No. 33 Squadron served with distinction in the Western Desert, converting from Hawker Hurricanes to Supermarine Spitfire Mk Vcs in early 1943 to provide vital air cover for the Eighth Army. The card is boldly signed Ron Farmborough in blue ink to the centre. This item represents a tangible link to the operations of the Desert Air Force during the Second World War.
