Plt Off Tom Neil WW2 RAF Battle of Britain Pilot signed colour print 12 x 8 inch signed in Pencil. Image of him in uniform. Wing Commander Thomas Francis Ginger Neil, DFC & Bar, AFC, AE born 14 July 1920 is a former Royal Air Force fighter pilot and ace of the Second World War, and one of the few remaining survivors of the Battle of Britain. Neil scored a total of 14 kills during the Second World War. He joined the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve on 17 October 1938 at the age of 18 and was called up to full time service at the outbreak of war. He was posted to No. 8 FTS on 1 December 1939 and was commissioned as a pilot officer on completion of the course. He was posted on 15 May 1940 to No. 249 Squadron RAF, which was an operational fighter squadron based at RAF Church Fenton in which he flew Hurricanes from RAF North Weald during the Battle of Britain alongside Tich Palliser. He recalled that the 12 Hurricanes in the squadron were permanently ready to scramble and that the pilots were simply instructed to shoot down as many enemy aircraft as possible and avoid getting shot themselves. The enemy aircraft he destroyed with the squadron included six Messerschmitt Bf 109s, two Heinkel He 111s, a Messerschmitt Bf 110, a Junkers Ju 87, a Junkers Ju 88 and a Dornier Do 17. He flew 141 combat missions during the Battle of Britain, but his only serious mishap was later on 7 November 1940 when he had a mid air collision with another Hurricane and lost the rear section of his aircraft. This rendered it uncontrollable, but he managed to bail out and survived with a minor leg injury. Asked in an interview how he survived so many missions virtually unscathed, he said that in addition to being very lucky and spending a lot of time ducking and weaving, it is important in aerial combat to have the sensitivity to know instinctively what is around you and he was lucky to have that ability. Neil was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross, on 8 October 1940 and was awarded a Bar to his DFC on 26 November 1940. He embarked with 249 Sqn on HMS Furious on 10 May and sailed for Gibraltar, and on arrival the squadron transferred to HMS Ark Royal. The squadron flew to Ta' Qali on 21 May 1941 to take part in the Battle of Malta and he shot down a Macchi C. 200 fighter on 12 June 1941. On 26 December 1941 Neil left Malta and in 1942 he became tactics officer for No. 81 Group, then he served with 56 OTU and was officer commanding No. 41 Squadron. He then became liaison officer to the US 9th Air Force's 100th Fighter Wing. This posting led to the award of the Bronze Star Medal. He was awarded the Air Force Cross in the 1950s and retired from the RAF in 1964 at the rank of wing commander. Good Condition. All signed items come with our certificate of authenticity.

Table of Isis.- Pignoria (Lorenzo) Mensa Isiaca, 3 parts in 1, third edition, additional engraved allegorical title by A. Blotelingh, title to each part with engraved vignette, 11 engraved plates, of which 10 large and folding, numerous engraved illustrations in text, of which 8 full-page, woodcut initials and decorations, occasional light foxing, bookplate of Edward Winnington, contemporary calf, gilt, red morocco spine label, a little rubbed, [Blackmer 1312], 4to, Amsterdam, Andreas Frisius, 1669. ⁂ Third edition of this important treatise on the Table of Isis by the Padovan scholar and antiquary Lorenzo Pignoria (1571-1631). The Table of Isis or Mensa Isiaca, a very large bronze tablet covered in a dark varnish or enamel and worked in silver with hieroglyphs and figures of Isis, Osiris, Thoth, Apis and other Egyptian deities, is said to have first come to light during the sack of Rome in 1527. Known as the Bembine table after its first owner, the humanist scholar Pietro Bembo, the table was an object of fascination to Renaissance scholars, and was later studied by Kircher, Montfaucon, Jablonski, and Caylus. Today it resides in the Museo Egizio in Turin. Pignoria's description, first published in 1605, was the first detailed printed account of the Table. In his description Pignoria compared the table to other known archeological objects, particularly Egyptian amulets and engraved gems. Unlike some of his contemporaries, who saw the table as a mystical relic from the dawn of creation, Pignoria concluded that the table was a Roman work of the Augustan period. The large folding plates of this edition were engraved by the Venetian engraver and publisher Giacomo Franco in 1600 to replicate the various parts of the Table, and were included, variously assembled and folded, in a handful of copies of the first edition, published by Franco in 1605. The full-page engravings in this edition reproduce the exceedingly rare woodcut illustrations from the first edition.
