Neat framed photograph of the Troopship USS Matsonia. The frame measures 12' by 20" and I would be able to get a lower shipping price if I sent it without the frame, your choice. It was used as a troopship during WW1 and completed six trips to Europe. It was renamed Etulain in 1937 and in WW2 became a US Army Transport ship with extensive service.

This is a neat frame with four WW2 era Squadron Insignia that have been nicely presented. These insignia are painted onto a linen type cardboard ,material and were made for the people at home to collect and display. Makes for a great looking display in your collection room and these were made during WW2. The frame measures 17" by 20".

Have two chalkware banks by "Novelty Mfg. Co., New York". They look like they have been touched up paint wise, but all there and still have the paperwork underneath. One is a Destroyer and the other is a Carrier, but both have Destroyed paperwork underneath. Both measure approx. 12 inches in length. They are sold at $100 each, or take both for $190.

Just a super grouping from the USS Savannah, a Wichita Class Replenishment Oiler that saw service in Vietnam in the Tonkin Gulf. The grouping consists of the Christening Bottle which is housed in a presentation wood box, a large presentation photo album to Vice Admiral Ralph L. Shirley and his wife, as she was the sponsor of the ship and the one who christened the ship. The album documents the christening along with the dinner afterwards. The Admiral was presented with a piece of wood from the keel block at the dinner. This took place on 23 April, 1970 at "General Dynamics" in Quincy, Mass. The christening bottle is in a presentation wood box, measuring approx. 13 1/2" long by 4 5/8" square. Pieces of the broken bottle are still inside the metal sleeve, with other small pieces inside the wood box. The metal sleeve is non-magnetic and is engrave with the event. There is a large picture of the ship and copies of newspaper articles that go along with the grouping. A great looking set.
