Picturedis an original piece of hull wood from the US Navy ship, USS Constitution. The USS Constitution was rebuilt in 1927 due to severe damage from rot and old age. Original wood from hullwas re-used to make souvenirs which were thensold to help pay for the restoration, and this is one of those souvenirs. Measures 3 1/2\" x 3 1/2\" x 3\", three sidesare sanded smooth and varnished. Brass plaque reads \"THIS MATERIAL WAS TAKEN FROM THE ORIGINAL HULL OF THE U.S. FRIGATE CONSTITUTION KEEL LAID 1794 REBUILDING 1927\". Excellent condition and 100% original! I have a smaller piece that came from a 1908 repair job on the ship that I also have listed. Both piecesare from an old San Francisco art collection that is being liquidated.

Guaranteed to be 100% original.

Thanks everyone for visiting Smardo-Miltiaria
