Thanks,

It maybe equals earlier ones, but I would not say better!

The painted ports were very popular in the last years of the 19th century. They didn't open or anything. Purely decoration.

Another wonderful model from a master craftsman, and a pleasure to see.

Thanks for the replies

Same old pattern continues – not much interest from ship modellers, but once again nearly got knocked over in the rush from collectors!

Caithness-Shire was snapped up within hours of completion and is now safely delivered to Belgium!
