This is an incredible homage to the Great Escape movie and real escape from Stalag Luft 3. Starting with an original A4 pencil drawing with white highlights on sepia recycled card by Steve Teasdale, this iconic image of Steve McQueen on his motorcycle is a real classic. Mounted alongside the drawing is a genuine Great Escape movie lobby card, featuring another recognisable scene with Steve McQueen as ‘Hilts’. Underneath the lobby card is mounted a piece of Luftwaffe barbed wire, typically found around the various POW camps in Poland and Germany. The genuine signatures of real Great Escape escapee Len Trent VC (number 79 out of the tunnel and caught immediately) and escape lookout Jack Lyon are also professionally mounted underneath. This whole montage is beautifully mounted to full conservation standards and ready to frame. This is a stunning item and a real gem for Great Escape fans. Size approx 61cm x 39cm.
