A trio of framed WWII-era aircraft recognition silhouette posters produced for the Ministry of Aircraft Production (M.A.P.) by His Majesty’s Stationery Office (H.M.S.O.). Each poster is an identification training aid featuring high-contrast three-view silhouettes (frontal, plan, and profile) with technical specifications. The lot includes silhouettes for a P-40F Warhawk (Merlin), a Republic P-47 Thunderbolt (Double Wasp), and Bristol Beaufighter Marks I and VI (Dihedral tail plane). Printed text includes the publisher authority, specific issue numbers, and dates ranging from October 1942 to July 1943 (with one 1944 reprint mark). All three items are housed in modern dark wood-grain effect frames.
