Print of Major Walter Krupinski

[AFF96]

Hey guys,
It's certainly not a Luft award or badge, so forgive me. But I picked this up awhile ago (I have -0- clue why as not my thing). Can anyone tell me about this print as I have -0- interest in keeping it. Are they hard to find or common; are they collectable? If someone who knows something about their value please PM me.

Sorry for the lousy photos, I didn't take them & tossed the cheap frame.
Thanks appreciate it!

Graf Punski, always a smile on his face. I think he was the bad influence on the way to the Führerhauptquartier with Hartman, Barkhorn, and Wiese...

Greg,

In the 80s/90s there were a several print companies that sold signed prints of famous aviators. Baders was one such shop. She arranged for prints, many by Robert Taylor, to be signed by the aces. One of the print series that was available around that time were portraits of the famous German aces. I have one from Galland. They were "limited" editon prints. In your case limited to 500. By art print standards that is not considered a limited print, but that is another matter. From what I have seen the prints currently sell for under their release price. I think these portraits were originally priced under $200, and perhaps under &100.
