Presentation Spitfire – AD554 'BEXLEY'

Hi, does anyone have a clear picture of the artwork on this plane please? There are various links online but can’t find an actual picture. Interested as I lived in Bexley for many years. Thanks. Bob.

Excellent. Thank you very much. I actually didn’t look in the most obvious place. Bob.
