A fabulous 1917 WW1 Pen and Ink Drawing of a German Gotha biplane on the fabric of a Gotha biplane shot down by the British in Belgium.
The drawing is dated the same day the aeroplane was shot down so a piece of the fabric must have been taken as a souvenir and drawn upon.
A unique historical document.
