Item Description
Own a bit of history with this detailed model of the Rainbow. Launched from New York in 1845 for trade with China, this ship was known as an extreme clipper, a type of clipper vessel designed to sacrifice cargo capacity for speed. It was built on the initiative of US Navy architect John w. Griffiths. On March 17, 1948, the Rainbow departed New York on its fifth voyage, en route to China and was never heard from. It was suspected that it ran aground on Cape Horn.
Dimension: 36" long x 26" high x 5" deep
Condition; In impressively good shape considering the rigging and the tiny parts.
