Vintage Albion River Barge Model.

Used condition - It appears to have a few small details missing, but overall it's solid and nicely presented on it's stand.

A bit of info found on the history: "Built in 1898 as a wherry and used to carry cargo on the inland waterways of eastern England. In 1949, ALBION was owned by Colmans Mustard, and was about to be broken up when a group of enthusiasts formed The Norfolk Wherry Trust to rescue her. Equipping her with a new mast and sail, they re-conditioned her and brought back to the Norfolk Broads where she is now one of only two remaining commercial Wherries."

Measures approximately (W) 37cm x (D) 9cm x (H) 9cm.

A lovely collectors project, nautical displays, canal or river enthusiast decor and lots more!
