I am very happy to announce that CAP now owns one of the very few original Eyes of the Home Skies posters. This poster was the first mass advertisement poster used for CAP. It is going to be professionally scanned and reproduced in limited number to raise money for the Historical Foundation. There are small versions of this sold on ebay that do not have the great detail this original does. I do not know how long it will take or how much the limited ones would cost but I am excited to have it as part of our collection.
Outstanding! :clap:
I like to see things like this.
Dang, that Jim Shaw should be a Historian. But I guess the cost of the original poster means no National Staff College.
