Description

A modern commemorative Special Edition card celebrating the Hawker Hurricane and the operational history of No. 134 Squadron, Royal Air Force. The card is produced on heavy white cardstock with a decorative gold-toned border. The printed text includes the squadron designation and the motto We shall fly through hardships. This item is of particular interest to aviation historians as it bears the original hand-signed signature of Flight Lieutenant L. Dennahy in black ink. The accompanying text identifies Dennahy as a veteran pilot who operated the Hawker Hurricane during the North African Desert campaign. No. 134 Squadron played a significant role in the Middle East Command, particularly during the advance from Egypt into Libya. This piece represents a tangible link to the pilots of the Desert Air Force. Measurements: approximately 150mm x 105mm.


Condition report:

The card is in excellent, well-preserved condition. There are no signs of foxing, creasing, or edge wear. The orange-gold printed elements remain sharp and unfaded. The signature is clear and distinct, showing no signs of ink migration or smudging. The item is currently housed in a protective plastic sleeve which has shielded it from dust and handling marks. This is a high-quality example of modern military commemorative ephemera.
