Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Fair++

$145   

Rare hardbox issue from the mid 1960s. Very large and highly detailed model measures over 21 inches long when assembled. The Natchez was the famous rival of the Robert E Lee.

All details of the real ship, including the wooden railings and carvings are duplicated. Includes full rigging instructions and thread. Never started.

With instructions, decals and flag sheet. Please note that while the box has heavy moisture/water damage, the decals, flag sheet and instructions (as well as all plastic parts) escaped damage and are 'excellent.'
