| 2904 |  | Tramp Freighter A model of a tramp steamer. A large freight boat that had no regular port. She just unloaded a cargo in a certain port and loaded up again to deliver at another. That is how these tramp steamers were called tramps. They just cruised from one port to another whenever they could contract to load and deliver cargo. | ||

| 2924 |  | U.S.S. Constitution (Old Ironsides) Who is there with a liking for things of the sea and a desire for beautiful decorations in his home who would not take delight in owning a model of Old Ironsides, the most famous ship that ever carried the Stars and Stripes. This model represents the famous frigate substantially as she appeared during the War of 1812. In her is embodied the spirit of the American Navy. Every school child learns her history and knows the story of her valiant battles. She not only played a monumental part in the early wars of the republic, but she has figured gloriously in fiction, poetry and the movies. In the spring of 1927 she was the center of intense national interest because of a campaign conducted for funds for her restoration at the Boston (Charleston) Navy Yard. As the history of the Constitution is to be found in many books and numberless articles, it will be sufficient here to say that her keel was laid down by Joshua Humphries of Philadelphia. She was built after the best French practice on the lines of a battleship, but with one deck less, making her a frigate. She was commissioned in 1798, one of the first three up-to-date warships to be built for the young republic. She saw service in the French wars, dictated peace to four of the Barbary corsair states and won a succession of victories in the War of 1812. She was in active commission for 84 years. In 1882 she was made a receiving ship at Portsmouth, New Hampshire. She was towed to Boston in 1897. In 1906-1907 she received her third reconditioning. Her principle dimensions are: length overall (hull) of 204 feet, beam 43.5 feet, depth of hold 14.6 feet, displacement 2200 tons. Her speed was up to about 12.5 knots and her crew up to 500 men. The model represents her about as she was in the War of 1812. The plans were adapted and simplified from government blueprints. The scale used is 1/10 of an inch to one foot. This model is 18 inches on the load water line and 31 inches long from the end of the flying jib boom to the end of the spanker boom, and 24 inches high from keel to main truck. The Constitution was affectionately called Old Ironsides because she was so toughly built and that she always withstood the onslaughts of her enemy's cannon balls and was never beaten. No wonder she remains with us after about 175 years, a glorious monument to the might of the sea power of the United States. The Constitution in 1812 carried 30 long 24 pounders on the gun deck, 22 cannonades of 32 pounds, 2 long 24 pounders, and one long 18 pounder on the frigate (top) deck. The building of the Constitution commenced actually in 1794, and Congress dilly-dallied with payments, and it was only due to the increased activities of the Barbary pirates that she was finally finished and commissioned in 1798. Her first cruise under Captain Samuel Nicholson accomplished nothing and her fame did not start until Commodore Edward Preble took her out in 1803. Her subsequent actions finally ended the war with Tripoli, and it was in her cabin that the treaty was drawn up and signed in 1807. She returned home and was dismantled in the New York Navy Yard where she was laid up until 1810 when Captain Isaac Hull, her former First Luff (Lieutenant Commander), took her out. Then began her real fame in the War of 1812 under Hull, Bainbridge, and Stewart. She made history and was laid up at the end of the hostilities in 1815. During the following years she was active and inactive as naval needs dictated until she was relegated to the bottom of the Navy lists as a receiving ship, a housed-over hulk with stub masts. On the centennial anniversary of her building she was towed from Portsmouth, New Hampshire, to Boston and laid up at the Navy Yard for extensive repairs. In 1927 she was saved from scrapping and was rebuilt and fitted to conform to her 1812 period. Afterwards she toured both coasts of the United States though regretfully not under sail, and will always prove an inspiration for upholding the statutes for which she is named. Restored by authority of Congress and the pennies of the children of the nation , the U.S.S. Constitution has become a sacred shrine of our Navy and our country. At rest now in the place of her birth, she preserves the memories of the dramas enacted upon her decks and lives on as a tradition of the U.S. Navy at Boston Navy Yard. | ||

| 2927 |  | U.S.S. Essex After the American Revolution the American Navy was allowed to dwindle in strength almost as a matter of course, while our overseas commerce expanded rapidly in extent and volume. Without protection, this commerce was subject to molestation by the Arab powers in the Mediterranean, British impressment of seamen, and petty piracy of other European nations. To protect our ships a number of frigates were built by popular subscription, including Essex by the citizens of Essex County, Massachusetts. She was a 32 gun frigate, length 146 feet, beam 37 feet, depth of hold 13 feet, launched Salem, Massachusetts, September 30, 1799. Her fascinating history with the account of her lone wolf raid into the South American whaling areas during the War of 1812 is told in detail by F.B. Robotti in the Nautical Research Journal. During my training as an apprentice seaman in the U.S. Navy, December 1898 to April 1904, in May 1899 I was stationed on the training ship U.S.S. Essex. She had been recently remodeled as a trainer. We were taught to climb the rigging and make and furl sail, gunnery, signaling. We made a 9 month European cruise. Our first trip from Newport, Rhode Island, to Queenstown, Ireland, took 23 days. We lay in a calm with no wind at all for 3 days with all sails flat. It was a delightful cruise. We visited all the countries in Europe and experienced shore leave in every port wherever we dropped anchor for fresh water and provisions. | ||

| 2931 |  | U.S.S. Preston These destroyers are remarkably good looking. They have a sleek ferocity that is fascinating. Their job is not to stand up and be hammered, but to hit and run, to use cunning to get in their deadly blow and vanish. In their uniform grey color there is nothing to distract from the lean silhouette. To see them at full speed with a bow wave as high as the bridge, or sliding along the side of a sea looking as if they never would come upright again is enthralling. But, don't go aboard unless you want an attack of sea-sickness. The construction department of the U.S. Navy was kind enough to furnish the building plans of the U.S.S. Preston (D.D. 327). The Preston was named for Lieutenant Samuel W. Preston who was born in Canada and died in battle while leading his men in the attack of Fort Fisher in 1865. She originally cost $1,000,000. Although the lines are of this particular ship, the differences between her and others of her class are so light that on a model they would be negligible. They were four stackers but the later ones today are two stackers. The overall length of the Preston is 314 ft., 4.5". Breadth is 31 ft. Depth amidships 20 ft. 8 ins. Displacement at water line 1,204 tons. The scale used to build this model is 1/10 inch equals 1 ft. This gives us a model 31.5 in. long, a convenient length for an exhibition model. The destroyer is equipped with 4 torpedo tubes and at the stern are two tracks projecting over the stern for the dropping of depth charges. Also, 4 four-inch rapid-fire guns and on the after deck one 3 inch anti-aircraft gun. | ||

| 2936 |  | U.S.S. Texas | ||
| 2937 |  | U.S.S. Texas In her heyday she was one of the finest and most powerful battleships afloat, the U.S.S. Texas, flagship of the Atlantic Fleet. This great battleship is ideal from the model maker's standpoint. Though beamy she has fine lines. On deck there is a variety of parts of an unusual character, objects that are good looking in themselves, instead of a monotony of cabins, structures, and hand rails that are found on a passenger ship. Though the model is specifically the Texas it would serve as well for the U.S.S. New York, her sister ship. Both were built from the same plans, the former at Newport News and the latter at the New York Navy Yard. The Texas carried the ranking admiral's flag and was so powerful she could be miles out of sight of the coast yet blow a city to bits in short order. Her great 14 inch guns, 53 feet long, would pierce armor plate so far away that it could bot be seen aboard. She had enough electric power to lite a small city. The ship had a displacement of 27,000 tons and an allowance of 1,315 men, and she cost about $11,000,000. Her length at the water line was 565 feet and the overall length was 573 feet. The beam was 100 feet. This model is built to the scale of 1/16 inch equals 1 foot, giving me a model almost 3 feet long and 6ΒΌ inches wide. She had turn screw propellers. The Texas was flagship of battleship division one of battle force, U.S. fleet and was long famous as flagship of the Atlantic fleet. The full armament was as follows: 6 large searchlights, ten 14 inch 45 caliber guns in turrets, twelve 5 inch 51 caliber rapid fire guns, six 3 inch anti-aircraft, three 3 pounders saluting guns, ywo one pounders, two 3 inch landing guns. If you will notice the little port holes and hawspipes on the model, these are eyelets dug out of old shoes. The greatest enjoyment I get in building ship models is that I try to make everything out of junk and scrap pieces that I pick up at random. I do not buy hardly anything except the paint. For instance, on the model the anchor chain had to be 11 links to the inch being a model scaled to 1/16 inch to a foot. I finally found a toy tin watch and chain in the ten cent store and upon measuring I found the little chain to be exactly 11 links to the inch, so I bought it for anchor chains. Working in spare times, now and then evenings and weekends, this model took about a year to build. The caliber of a gun is the diameter of the bore at the muzzle. Thus a 14 inch gun will have a bore of 14 inches. The designation of 45 caliber denotes that a gun is 45 times its caliber in length or in the case of a 14 inch gun, 52 feet, 6 inches to which is added the breach. The Texas also carried a sea plane mounted on a catapult on top of a 14 inch gun turret. Six large search lights. I hoisted a signal flag, blue and white checkerboard pattern called the "General Recall", when members of the crew were away from the ship, ashore on liberty or visiting other ships and sudden sailing orders were received. This flag (the General Recall) was hoisted calling everybody back aboard ship immediately and report to their assigned stations for "up anchor". It might be interesting here to say that there is only one flag that can be hoisted above the American flag on the same halyard and that's a white pennant with a blue cross - lengthwise of the white pennant - called the church pennant to signify religious services were being held on board, or in the fort, or station, or camp. Another pennant called the "Mess" pennant is a long red pennant hoisted to the signal arm to signify all hands are at meals. In former days it was customary to use the "Homeward Bound" pennant whenever a ship stationed in foreign waters receives orders to "up anchor" and sail for home waters. Each man in the crew pays for one foot of this pennant. It is a long pennant bearing the stars and stripes and flown from the peak of the mainmast. One ship that I was on, the U.S.S. Essex, a three-masted square rigged clipper ship, was ordered home from European station, and the homeward bound pennant was 326 feet long, flying from the masthead. The tail end was kept out of the water by 3 inflated bladders fastened to the end that floated on the surface of the water. This pennant was only hoisted when leaving port and when entering home port. When we got home and dropped the anchor the pennant was hauled down and it was cut in pieces so that each man got one foot as a souvenir of that glorious homeward bound trip. In an old issue of 1810 "The London Family Herald" that published the subject of christening ships at launchings with bottles of wine is about to be taken up by the temperance people who claim that the rolling of vessels at sea is mainly caused thereby. | ||
