B-17F "Royal Flush"

I have a picture of a Danish born mechanic standing in front of B-17 "Royal Flush". 59 mission marks are painted on the side of the fuselage.

Would anyone be able to tell be at which point in time this particular aircraft had flown this number of missions. I'd like to be able to date the photo.

Thanks in advance
