Revell 1/96 Frigate USS United States Old Wagon - With ScaleDecks Laser Cut Wood Deck - With Billowing Sails, H396 plastic model kit

1/96 H396 Revell Frigate USS United States Old Wagon - With ScaleDecks Laser Cut Wood Deck - With Billowing Sails

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Includes the beautiful ScaleDecks Laser Cut Real Wood deck in mint, never used condition. It sells new for $129 and is the deck for the same scale Constitution which shares the same deck parts with this kit. The actual model is the 1976 release of this classic kit that is 36 inches long and 27 inches high. Highly detailed and has the correct changes for this ship. Includes sails and full rigging. The box has wear as shown. Inside, the kit has never been started. Two of the three parts bags are still factory sealed; the light brown bag had a tear, so I opened it, did an inventory and it is complete. All instructions, rigging diagrams, vacuform sails and pre-formed ratlines are included. The vac sails are in very rare 'excellent+' condition, which is not mint but well above average. 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 (apparently unenthusiastic) service on this vessel, including many details of equipment and life aboard, is detailed in his autobiographical novel, "White-Jacket"(1850).
