PD 139 - This model of a typical British tramp coastal steamer is an effort to simulate the builder's style half models of the late 19th and early 20th century, showing the hull mounted on a mirrored backboard (to give the illusion of a hull model) and presented in a solid mahogany case. Solid basswood hull, built-up superstructure and numerous brass fittings.
