Hi all. Thanks for this excellent and informative forum as I work my way through the content. Fascinating. 

 

I was led here by something that my father bought when he was an antiques dealer in London in the 1970s, and which is now mine. 

 

I'm not looking for a valuation since it's value to me has nothing to do with money. But I would appreciate any pointers as to its age etc. I'm afraid it's very dusty and the rigging is starting to suffer a little - issues I'll fix very soon. 

 

Again, any history or information would be much appreciated. 

 

Thank you.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
