Naval aviation special markings and nose art is a field that has
been largely ignored, primarily due to the lack of coverage in
mainstream aviation history publications. Research into archives,
feedback from veterans, and personal photographs by the authors,
Jim Meehan and William Tate, have documented thousands of
previously unknown individual aircraft with these markings. Paint
Locker Magic: A History of Naval Aviation Special Markings and
Artwork covers markings on US Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard
aircraft over the 100 year history of US naval aviation. This
fascinating and visually resplendent book includes illustrations of
special markings and nose art on early canvas-covered airplanes
through the World War 2 era when nose art flourished and on into
the jet age, the Korean and Vietnam conflicts, and up to the
present war on terror with aircraft marked to commemorate the 9-11
terrorist attacks. This coverage includes fighters and attack
aircraft of the carrier navy and the patrol aircraft, transports
blimps, research and test aircraft and helicopters. Markings
include personal nose art and pinups, shark mouth and similar
markings, cartoons depicting special missions, Christmas and
similar markings and tributes.
