Can't imagine how much it would cost to build one of those tall ships today with all the beautiful details and the gold leaf.
I know some pieces, like Ruba Romic, can still bring the $$ but this just didn't seem like one of those. This sold Madrid piece shocked me....
Your find reminded me of this. [IMG] The USS Salem is moored just a short distance from my home. I took this picture in 2012 from my canoe the...

Davey, thank you for the link. That is exactly what I've run into. Same number but not quite the same. I did find a discussion on a military...
