1/96 H396 Revell Frigate USS United States 'Old Wagon'
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed VG++
Rare 1976 release is still factory sealed but the seal has splits. This is a very large kit, 36 inches long and 27 inches high. Highly detailed and has the correct changes for this ship. Includes sails and full rigging. The Revell model depicts the vessel as modified for use as a flagship, with a much enlarged, rebuilt stern and "roundhouse." Writer Herman Melville's (apparentlyunenthusiastic) service on this vessel, including many details of equipment and life aboard, is detailed in his autobiographical novel, "White-Jacket"(1850).
