I have a picture of the entire crew standing in front of the original Belle.
The picture was taken at Bassingbourn England May 1943

The signature looks like it is from the co-pilot Robert Morgan

I purchased the picture at a small air show in Lorain Ohio about 10-12 years ago

Great piece of history and I was wondering what it's value migt be
The picture and signature are in perfect shape

Thanks in advance
Mike Daniels
