Making landfall after a long patrol, the No. 6 boat of VP-91 heads home to Southern Cross Airfield, Barking Sands, Kauai, Territory of Hawaii, in May 1942. Even though the lighthouse on Kilauea Point below had its light, and the nearby radio homing towers deactivated for wartime security, aircrews making landfall at this northernmost point in the Hawaiian Island chain always heaved a sigh of relief when seeing the solitary structure, still a beacon of hope. This L/E of 850 is S/N by the artist. It has never been mounted and is in perfect condition. It comes with a COA that is suitable for framing. The image of the print measures 16" x 11 3/4".
