Today we have a mixed bag of new additions:

How about a pair of exclusive cufflinks made from nothing less than the metal from Al Deere's personal Spitfire? Read a preview of Spitfire Cufflinks from TMB Art Metal in the Product News & Reviews section.
New in the Art & Memorabilia gallery is ML407 The Grace Spitfire - another airbrushed piece by Herman Veltrop.
New pair of images has also been added in the Historic Photographs section. The first one shows a squadron of anonymous Australian Spitfires In their element, with request to all for some additional information.

The second image should come as a surprise. I myself have never expected to see a Spitfire in a German concentration camp! Yet here it is, a crash-landed Mk. V brought by the Germans to the Vught camp in the Netherlands.
