    Description

    Superb 8 1/2 x 11" document in which Col. Paul Tibbets, Pilot of the World War 2 plane Enola Gay, is asked questions about whether the atomic bomb drop went as planned.
    Questions include:
    * Did things go as planned?
    * So what did you do then?
    * Couldn't the Japanese have seen you well enough to shoot down your plane?
    * What happened when you dropped the bomb?
    Tibbets's answer are fascinating.
    Tibbets has autographed this page at the bottom in bright blue ink. The signature is genuine, not printed.
    In December, 1993, I paid Gen. Tibbets to do a private signing of a number of these documents. So they came directly from Gen. Tibbets to me and have been in my possession since then. Gen. Tibbets passed away in 2007, so once my inventory of these documents is gone, there will be no more. I know of no more of these documents available other than the ones I had Gen. Tibbets sign.
    A true piece of American history.
