Raf Tapestries
Description: The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the United Kingdom's aerial warfare force. It was formed towards the end of the First World War on 1 April 1918. Following the Allied victory over the Central Powers in 1918, the RAF emerged as the largest air force in the world at the time. Since its formation, the RAF has taken a significant role in British military history. In particular, it played a large part in the Second World War where it fought its most famous campaign, the Battle of Britain.
Description: The Spitfire was the only British fighter in continuous production throughout the entire Second World War. It became the backbone of the Royal Air Force Fighter Command and was most noted for beating back the German Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain. The distinct elliptical wings were designed to have the thinnest possible cross section, which resulted in higher speeds than many other fighters of the day.
Description: RAF Roundel - Used by units under South East Asia Command and in the CBI theatre mid-1942 – 1946. Red removed to avoid confusion with Japanese hinomaru. Initially red was overpainted with white but this compromised the camouflage and the normal roundel blue was mixed 50:50 with white.
Description: Smack the cover of Ulrike Meinhof’s Urban Guerilla Concept on a book you fill with obscenely detailed depictions of young Andreas Baader taking young Stalin's hand, drawing him closer, the world around them fading as their bodies run together losing track of where one ends and the other begins except to know they are not alone, there is some other, and this other is responsible for this ecstasy which is pumping through their veins, pumping, pumping, pumping... and communicate to whoever you’re near that yeah, you’re considering becoming an urban guerilla, no big deal.
