The real Tusitala was a historic three-masted, full-rigged sailing ship built in 1883. She later sailed under the American flag and is recognized as the last full-rigged merchant sailing ship to fly the American flag. In 1929, the year represented on this model, Tusitala was still engaged in commercial sailing trade.
This model features a carved wooden hull, three masts, wooden spars, thread rigging, and a wooden display base.
Condition: Vintage pre-owned condition with age-related wear. Some string rigging is loose, broken, or out of position and may require repair/restoration. Wood shows minor surface wear consistent with age. Please review all photos carefully for exact condition and completeness. Sold as pictured.
