This model is of the whaler John Manta, reportedly the last whaler
of this type ever to sail from New Bedford in 1925. The Original
John Manta was built in Essex, Ma in 1904. This is not a kit
model, every single piece you see was painstakingly
handcrafted. When this Basswood model was made
we don't know, but we'd guestimate it's from about
the mid 1900s. However, the sturdy handsome oak
display case that it comes with was built by
the friend who asked us to sell it.
The ship itself is approximately 3 feet long by 2 feet high!
Let us know and we'll gladly email more pics!
