Hello Swabbies - Did you miss me? I have been traveling the Seven Seas, the South Sea, the North Sea and of course the Sargasso Sea!! Well Pollywogs it was a interesting trip of course being with Commodore Wilkes on his South Seas Expedition! Well in looking back in 2022 you shellbacks were so fortunate!! Selling out of the "Old Time Ship Collection" you shipmen were able to pickup over 25 Bassett Lowke models, 25 Bronzart models, 25 1:500 Comet models and 25 1:500 Framburg models! No telling how many odd 1:1200 ships and 1:500 ships and subs! Yikes no other person on the seven seas, plant or universe ever put that many unbelievable ship models on in such a short period of time - YOU LUCKY SEA DOGS! Well it is 2023 and why not sell some more models out of the OLD TIME SHIP COLLECTION!
Here we have a super rare wood Bassett Lowke British Recognition Model for the Royal Navy!! It is a freaking German Seaplane Tender Friesenland!! Yikes is that a rare model. It is painted black- for locating this model you can go from Kiel to Helogoland or from Jutland to the Dardenelles and never ever see another of these models. They are extremely rare to see in any condition. It does not have the original Bassett- Lowke tag on the base and I guess the black paint was the original paint color of the model. Yes black is what it is now- I did not paint it black nor did the Old Time ship collector. Black is the color of ship silhouettes to you plebe at night in the North Atlantic!! If you see this ship at night hope that it is not the Admiral Sheer getting ready to fire a salvo at you!
It is marked on base "German Fresenland" "Scale 1:500" - It measures 10 7/8 inches long and it is 1 1/2 inches wide. Read the above detailed condition or (damage)report - it is overall good condition with need of afew small repairs but mostly it is just pieces like two masts. It could use a cleaning too - it is wartime made or production - the "Blitz" and V-1 Rockets are still having an effect in London and all over the British Isle!
OK mate thanks for making it to the end of this description- if you have any question lets have a palaver!! I speak Urdu, Cantonese,Swahili, Talog and of course the Kings English!
