Shopteli is proud to present this stunning King of Mississippi Steam Powered Boat Model.
The King of Mississippi, a renowned steam-powered boat that sailed the Mississippi River. Also featured prominently in Mark Twain's novels Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, is now available as a FULLY ASSEMBLED model for proud display as a piece of history.
These highly detailed wood models are handcrafted by master craftsmen using historical photographs, drawings, and original plans. Built to scale with high-grade wood such as western red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany, they are 100% hand-built individually using the plank-on-frame construction method, akin to the building of actual ships. Each model demands hundreds of hours to complete and must undergo a rigorous quality control process before leaving the workshop.
This stunning King of Mississippi model showcases intricate detailing and exquisite craftsmanship, capturing the essence of the original steamboat. From the elegant paddlewheel to the smokestacks and ornate deck structures, every aspect of this model has been meticulously recreated to pay homage to the iconic riverboat.
The model comes secured on a solid wood base with a brass nameplate, making it an ideal gift for home or office decorators, boat enthusiasts, or passionate collectors.
