Hi All,
It was my Dad who first got me into Zulu and as a testament to that and as a legacy to him, I have decided to invest in an original piece of artwork from the renowned military artist Jason Askew. This in the near future will be framed and adorn my lounge wall with great pride.
I now fully own the attached artwork and copyright, but I have decided to share this with the world and the members on here will have the first opportunity to pre-order a copy of the artwork.
The artwork is A1 size, which measures 33.1" wide (841mm) * 23.4" high (594mm) and will be reproduced on a high quality paper. The print will be posted in a suitable mailing tube and world wide postage will be free.
The artwork will go off to the printers within the next week, so if you would like to order a copy of this unique artwork please feel free to contact me.

A thought as just struck me! as these will be first generation copies, will the first run be available as ltd editions? and have you arranged Jason to sign any!..sorry if this seems a bit cold, but as a collector i set store by such things, and of course you could adjust the prices accordingly.. just thinking aloud..
