Lucky Bastard Club – 487th - 02/12/2009 03:56:48 PM ( #1 )
Hello,
Perhaps you could help me out…I am an 8th AAF 2-Gen and an incorrigible collector of a number of things for most of my life.
One of my father’s most cherished mementos of his WWII service was his Lucky Bastard Club certificate.  Through some light research I discovered that most of the ~40 bomb groups stationed in England issued their own versions of these certificates.  It struck me as an interesting project to try and collect a high quality .jpg example of an original LB certificate from each of the bomb groups and to put together a little history guide illustrating all of them in one collection.
My request is for the supply of a 300 to 600 KB .jpg or larger scan at 200 dpi or better of one or more of the certificates that were issued to veterans of the 487th.  My father’s original was printed on photographic paper by the base photographer.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Rowdy

Funny I run across your message 1 year later, I have copy of my father's certificate.  Will scan in a few days and attach.
