P-51 355th FG Help

[Duckie]

The Iowa Beaut, WR*P is on the paint palette and I need some help.

Does anyone have any info on the color of the aircraft name "The Iowa Beaut"? The only decent photo I have showing the name is B&W.

JT? JKB? EPS?

Thanks in advance,
Steve

Thanks Bravan40. I have that one but unfortunately the name can't be made out. At close inspection it even looks as though it is not carrying the name "The Iowa Beaut" at all in this shot.

I do see the name, it's in yellow, same color as the yellow tail trim tab, with a thin black outline. It's hard to see it because its kind of in a shadow. The Mustang in the color photo looks shiny with wear and dull patches in places...
I do want to have this Mustang in my hangar. please Duckie!
