WWII Era BRASS Binnacle Navy Compass USN Ship Maritime

AUTHENTIC WWII ERA USN BINNACLE AND COMPASS

OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY!

We found this wonderful piece of American history in a barn! It still has the ORIGINAL battleship grey paint on it! Under the paint is a solid bronze binnacle. We decided to leave the piece as is because we didn't want to tamper with the historical look and feel of it. This auction also includes the compass, manufactured by the John E Hand & Sons company of Philadelphia, PA. The compass has a serial number on it in case you want to try and research it! This is a MUST HAVE for any Naval historian, museum, library, or collector. Would also look wonderful as a display piece in a nautical themed restaurant, bar, or other establishment. These pieces can go for nearly double our asking price, and that's just for the binnacle, not including the compass!

Custom Ronald Reagan for the USS Ronald Reagan and Library

A few years back we did a custom bronze sculpture for the USS Ronald Reagan of the president. The life-size bronze statue is situated in the welcome center as you come on board. The ship is docked in the harbor in San Diego. This piece was donated as a show of our patriotism and support of the Reagan memory. Another model was donated to the ranch the family had by Nancy herself. A third was placed in Reagan's boyhood hometown. And another is in the state house in Maryland. The final piece in the series was to be sold to a private collector, however it was never picked up. It is now available for sale at our ebay store at a significant discounted price. It would be a great addition to a library, museum exibit, or private collection. You can see it here.
