Description
A CIA issued poster titled "Cold Warriors." This poster is based on a display that detailed the history of disappeared Cold War pilots. Specifically, the display centered around ten unresolved shoot downs of American intelligence air crafts during this time.
Framed in silver and measuring 32.5 x 24", this poster includes photos of these missing flights and their planes. The poster features memorabilia from the display, such as the Western Union notice to a wife informing her that her Sargent husband had gone missing, following Korean operations. It also includes a rare black and white picture of a missing crew smiling in their airforce uniforms before a mission. The poster measures 32 x 23" unframed.
The flights discussed in this display deal with those flown from 1950- 1960's. Had Francis Gary Powers been unsuccessful in escaping his U-2 aircraft, he would have indeed been a part of this display.
These items provided directly by Mr. Powers' son, expert public speaker on the U-2 Incident and Cold War History, Francis Gary Powers Jr.
