Own a Piece of the Cold War’s Most Legendary Bomber

For over 70 years, the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress has stood as a symbol of power, endurance, and American ingenuity. Developed in response to a 1945 call from the U.S. Army Air Forces for a bomber that could strike anywhere in the world without relying on foreign bases, the B-52 became one of the most iconic and longest-serving military aircraft in history.

MotoArt is proud to honor this legend with our newest release: B-52 Stratofortress Coasters, handcrafted from genuine B-52 aircraft aluminum sourced from Dave Hall’s boneyard collection. Once part of his aviation material archive used for MotoArt furniture and art, this authentic aluminum now takes on new life as functional, collectible pieces of history. Read more about it on our blog.

From the Skies to Your Table

Every coaster is cut, polished, and laser-etched at MotoArt Studios in California, preserving the unique surface details of authentic B-52 aluminum, rivet holes, scratches, and natural patina - the marks of a true veteran of the skies.

Whether you’re adding to your aviation collection or gifting a fellow enthusiast, these coasters offer a meaningful way to hold a fragment of one of the most enduring aircraft ever built.

“The B-52 has always been one of my favorite aircraft,” says MotoArt founder Dave Hall. “It’s tough, timeless, and built to last. We’ve had this material in our boneyard for years, and when we decided to expand our coaster line with more historic military planes, the B-52 was the perfect fit.”

OUR PLANE'S STORY

First taking flight in 1952, the Boeing B-52 quickly became the backbone of America’s strategic bomber fleet. With a 185-foot wingspan, a 70,000-pound payload, and a range of 8,800 miles, it could deliver power and precision anywhere on the globe.

The B-52’s adaptability has kept it flying for generations, seeing combat in Vietnam, Desert Storm, and Operation Enduring Freedom, among others. More than seven decades later, it remains in active service, a true testament to its unmatched design and engineering.

DISCLAIMER

PlaneTags are Handmade Aviation Tags

• Authentic - made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. 
• Unique -  each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. 

*Important Notice – Please Read Carefully

PlaneTags are made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. Because PlaneTags are made from real fuselage, each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. These variations and imperfections are not product flaws. They are part of the beauty of PlaneTags. As a result, you will not have an option to select the color of your PlaneTag. The images on this website are provided for reference only and should not be used as the sole basis for choosing a particular PlaneTag.
