Not much info on this a/c other than the group primarily conducted night missions in search of enemy submarines and shipping, hence the black paint. This artwork was widely used on many planes throughout the war and is an accurate depiction of the Alberto Varga illustration that appeared on the aircraft. The original panel survived the smelters and is on display at the American Airpower Heritage Museum in Texas. Unfortunately, it is painted in the wrong color scheme. Further analysis is discussed in Velasco's new nose art book as to how and the possibility of error on its historical significance. Velasco has acquired the only known photos of SACK TIME and proves that this is the correct color scheme PLANE JUNKIE - "Sack Time" Nose Art Panel (B-24M Liberator)
