"Disney character 'Pluto' B-24 nose art" From "Darkroom Soldier": "Fuselage Art. Painting nicknames, names and personalized icons on the fuselage was an unsanctioned but traditional art of Army Air Force crews. The motifs were varied and extensive -- tail fins with skull and crossbones, sides with female nudes, noses with sharks and other animals....Here, one of many mischievous Walt Disney cartoon characters." ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)
