Mississippi River Steamboat Assembled Wood Model Ship on Stand 1850 Paddlewheel

Bring the romance of 19th century river travel into your home with this detailed wood Mississippi Paddlewheel Steamboat display model, marked "Mississippi Year 1850" on its base. Featuring twin smokestacks, rigging, lifeboats, paddlewheel propulsion, flag, and multi-deck construction, this piece displays beautifully as Americana décor or a collector's showpiece.

The ship sits mounted to a textured carved base with a brass identification plaque, making it ideal for shelf display, office, den, bookshelf, library, bar or nautical-themed interior. A fantastic conversation piece with tons of visual storytelling and handcrafted charm.

Condition:

Pre owned vintage model ship with visible surface wear from age (rigging loose in areas, general patina/paint wear, broken buts, display strings present as shown). Regardless of age appropriate wear and some broken pieces the ship is still structurally stable and displays wonderfully. See photos for all details as they are part of the description.
