CONDITION REPORT: The painting is in generally extremely good condition with no significant issues. There is a very fine gauze patch to the rear of the picture which appears to be covering a small tick shaped nick in the canvas. This is not visible from the front of the painting and in our opinion of no significance. The paint surface is in generally good order with no visible signs of any significant paint loss. Other than the tiny mark covered by the patch there appears to be no evidence of any repairs or restoration. The painting may be considered to be a little dirty but in our opinion a clean would simply be a matter of choice and personal preference.

A WWII Royal Air Force Distinguished Flying Medal awarded to casualty 130794 FLYING OFFICER HUGH MASON RAF (medal numbered 904842). Hugh served as an air gunner in the Royal Air Force Volunteer Reserve as part of 103 and 83 Squadrons. 103 Squadron began the war as an advanced air striking force, with the Vickers Wellington from October 1940 as a night bomber unit, later equipping with the Lancaster. 83 Squadron focused on precision raids and night operations, being equipped with Avro Manchesters and soon-after, Lancasters. In August 1942 the squadron was transferred to the No. 8 Group Pathfinder Force at RAF Winton, operating as a marker force for the main force of Bomber Command, later returning to RAF Coningsby. Hugh was listed in the London Gazette on the 21st November 1941 as a recipient of the DFM. His citation reads as follows: Mason, Hugh. 904842 Sergeant, No. 103 Sqn. L. G. 21/11/1941. Sorties 26, Flying Hours 154.15. Air Gunner Air2/9334. "By his outstanding keenness and devotion to duty, Sgt. Mason has at all times shown himself to be one of the squadrons most reliable Air Gunners. His determined spirit and cheerful nature has gone a long way to help in keeping up the morale of his crew and in setting a very fine example to the rest of the squadron. Since joining the squadron in January 1941, this NCO has achieved an excellent operational record and it is unfortunate that, up to date, he has been denied the chance to prove his worth against the enemy but I am of the opinion that his consistent good work, both in the air and on the ground, is sufficient to warrant the award for which he is recommended. His Captain, Sgt Addy, cannot speak too highly of his excellent work in the air and in particular, his splendid spirit which, even although the aircraft is under the most severe flak-fire, always remains cheerful and competent." 22, August, 1941. The lot also includes a photographs including Hugh Mason with his crew beside a Lancaster Bomber, ephemera, Air Gunner cloth patch, and metal badges including Pathfinder and RAF
