About this piece

4 Original Advertisements Good Condition Approx. 16 X 20 The image is a reproduction of a 1943 advertisement for Coca-Cola, featuring an illustration by artist William John Heaslip of Curtiss P-40 Warhawk fighter planes in combat. The P-40 was a key American fighter aircraft at the start of World War II, known for its ruggedness and availability when needed most by the Allied forces. It served in numerous combat areas, including the Pacific Theater, China (with the famed Flying Tigers), North Africa, and Europe. The "shark mouth" nose art seen on the main aircraft in the illustration was famously used by the American Volunteer Group (AVG), or "Flying Tigers," in China. The original illustrations were part of a 1943 ad campaign distributed to Coca-Cola customers
