Model: 18 Pounder Gun Carriage by Details2000, The
Napoleonic era carriage naval gun, 18 pounder. A model to
complement your ships. The great warships in their complexity
were simply gun-platforms, vessels to carry these guns to
within lethal distance of the enemy. Crushing broad sides were
measured in tons of iron balls thrown at the enemy often at no
more than pistol shot distances. A ship's approximate power was
stated in the number of her guns; for example: HMS Victory
(100), HMS Surprise (28), the USS Constitution (44).--Import,
2002, Model, 12X7. G, List Price $50.00,
Your price $50.00, Book Number B01061. |

Model: HMS Surprise (28) by Details2000, An attractive display to hang on your den wall when you are not reading about Aubrey and Maturin but also a handy reference while reading Patrick O'Brian's books.

The artisans of these longitudinal sections layered thin strata of a light colored wood to provide an appearance of depth, as though you are looking into the ship with the strakes removed and the ribs cut away. The art of the models results from an illusion of great depth in less than an inch behind the frame, like stage scenery.--Import, 2002, Longitudinal section, 14X7. , List Price $80.00, Your price $80.00, Book Number B01060.Go to top.
