This great picture collage salutes that great aviation pioneer - Chuck Yeager who was the first person to break the sound barrier. On Oct. 14, 1947 he flew the X-1 and broke the sound barrier for the first supersonic barrier. The collage features a picture of the Yeager next to the X-1. Highlighting the collage is the First Day Cover of the stamp issued to honor the 50th Anniversary of when Chuck Yeager first broke the sound barrier. On the day a stamp is issued, it is only available in the city where it is issued and the Post Office certifies this by canceling the stamp “First Day of Issue.” Highlighting the collage is the Commemorative Cover issued to honor the first Supersonic flight by Chuck Yeager. Overall, a great collectible for any aviation buff.
The size of this matted picture is 10" x 13" and will fit any 10" x 13" inch frame. (a standard size).
I make all these collages by hand. As a history buff as well as a lover of old movies and all types of sports, the key to each picture is the research behind it. Deciding what movies should go with a particular star or what game or series would best reflect a certain sports hero is crucial to a successful collage. I then design each picture individually and lay out the design on the mat. Finally, I cut each mat based on that design and assemble the collage.
