Ian Hall is an artist in CA who specializes in WWII art. I asked him if he would do a drawing of the Katie B. The print is 11x17 and can be purchased signed and number for $50 and unsigned for $35. I have attached information from Ian below.
At the VC-20 site there is a rendering of a TBM1c. It represents Charlie 90 flown by Ens. Don Rogers. Price is the same. Also, for those who love EBAY, the prints are available for bid.
I asked Ian to produce a print for VC-20 with a Wildcat flying cover for the TBM over the Katie B.
