Founded in 2018, Authentication Integrity Verified (AIV) was created by longtime autograph industry professionals committed to raising standards in authentication, security, and collector confidence. AIV utilizes proprietary security holograms and QR-code verification technology, allowing collectors to quickly access authentication records through the AIV database.

For witnessed signings, an AIV representative is present during the signing process and the authentication record is entered into the database following the event.

Authentication and integrity remain the cornerstones of AIV's verification process.

About the Flying Tigers

The American Volunteer Group (AVG), better known as the Flying Tigers, was organized under the leadership of General Claire Lee Chennault prior to America's formal entry into World War II.

Operating in China against Japanese forces, the Flying Tigers quickly earned an international reputation for their aggressive tactics, exceptional combat record, and the famous shark-mouth artwork painted on their aircraft. Despite being heavily outnumbered, AVG pilots repeatedly achieved success through superior tactics, discipline, and flying skill.

The Flying Tigers became symbols of American determination during a critical period of the war and remain among the most celebrated aviation units in military history.

About the Signers

Charles Bond (1923-2017) became one of the leading aces associated with the China air war and later served with distinction throughout a long Air Force career. His combat achievements and leadership made him one of the most respected aviators connected to the Flying Tigers legacy.

Dick Rossi (1919-2009) was among the original members of the American Volunteer Group and remains one of the most recognizable names associated with the Flying Tigers. His firsthand experiences helped preserve the history and traditions of the AVG for future generations.

Joe Rosbert and Carl Brown were members of the remarkable group of aviators and support personnel whose dedication and sacrifice helped establish the Flying Tigers' legendary reputation.

Together, these four signatures represent a rare and increasingly difficult-to-find collection of original AVG veterans.

About "Flying Tigers Buffalos"

This artwork pays tribute to the early fighter aircraft and personnel associated with the Flying Tigers story. Before the AVG became famous for the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk and its iconic shark-mouth markings, many of the pilots and aviation personnel gained valuable experience flying and maintaining a variety of aircraft throughout the Pacific and Asian theaters.

The painting captures the spirit of innovation, determination, and courage that defined the Flying Tigers during one of the most challenging periods of the war.
