The famous Mississippi steamboats were widely used in traffic in the 1870 to
1920 era. Today they are regarded as a symbol of the American west.
Please take your time to have a good look at
the set of photos. There are
several views of the entire ship model taken from all directions (11 photos
with 400 kB), and several closer views of hull, deck
and rigging (13 photos with 600 kB). If you click on a photo you will get that photo in high
resolution. Only these high resolution photographs show how much work and
handicraft ability were put in the model. (If you use Microsoft Internet
Explorer or Netscape Navigator or Firefox, press F11 to minimize navigation bars and have a
larger screen with the photos.)
The photos of this ship model were made in open air. As the flag was slightly
moved by the wind it is a little blurred in some of the photos.

early 20th century

The
Mississippi steamboat model is a very fine, beautiful and decorative piece of work.
It is 1 : 50 scale. Length is 110 cm, width 25 cm, height 56 cm. It is
loosely set on its stand and could be placed on a flat surface as well. The
stern wheel can be rotated.
The price of
the model is 1700 Euro, plus transport cost.
Shipping the Mississippi steamer in a crate by some
package delivery company can be done. Picking up the ship with your car may be a good way, too.
