Description: WWII-style nose art, with pin-up girls and phrases that were common on bombers during the war. They replicate specific planes and designs that would have been used by the U.S. Army Air Forces during WWII. 1. "Heavenly Body" This patch depicts a blonde pin-up with the text "Heavenly Body," along with "B-17 USAAF 401 BG." This refers to a B-17 bomber used by the 401st Bomb Group of the United States Army Air Forces. "Heavenly Body" would have been the name given to this particular aircraft, with a design inspired by the popular pin-up art style of the time. 2. "Our Gal Sal" This patch shows a brunette pin-up alongside the name "Our Gal Sal" and the designation "1317 G." "Our Gal Sal" is likely another reference to a specific aircraft with personalized artwork, though the exact details of "1317 G" may relate to a unit or identifier number. The image includes a small string of bomb symbols, typically used to represent completed bombing missions. These designs would have been inspired by real nose art used on bombers to personalize the aircraft and boost morale for the crews who flew them. Like the previous patches, these may have been recreated for historical collectors or enthusiasts.
