Good grief. I didn't know I'd lived next door to the Great Artiste for
all those years. I do remember seeing a B-29 "on the hard" near the
main gate, but never paid any attention to it.


You didn't live next door to it. The "Great Artiste", B-29-40-MO 44-27353,
was scrapped at Goose AFB, Labrador, on September 27, 1949. The airplane
displayed at Pease AFB in "Great Artiste" markings was B-29A-40-BN 44-61671.
