Vintage travel agent model, ironically constructed mostly of wood with metal accents (no wood was allowed anywhere in the construction or outfitting of the ship save for the kitchen butchers’ blocks and the 11 fireproof Steinway pianos). Model is in restorable condition but is missing some pieces such as lifeboats and deck equipment, shows wear in some of the metal railings and overall, and the forward funnel, radar mast, and upper deck section is detached. The interior is hollow and it was designed to be lit up from inside. Restorable but missing lifeboats and deck equipment, detached forward funnel/radar mast/upper deck section. Interior hollow for lighting. Bag of loose parts included.
Dimensions: Approx. 42 in x 7 in x 5 in.
