The USS Constitution, compassionately known as “Old Ironsides,” is a ship constructed in 1794 as the beginnings of the new U.S. Navy. Far from simply being a great American icon, she represented a new path of shipbuilding. She was one of six frigates designed to be more heavily armed and armored than other ships of her size, while still being fast enough to evade enemy men-o-wars.

 

Her design proved effective and after winning the first victory against the British Navy in the War of 1812, the USS Constitution was kept from the scrapyard. Now, she is the oldest ship still afloat—even sailing under her own sails and performing salutes for special occasions.

 

Here is your chance to have this world-famous ship sail its way across your desk or perform salutes from your shelf! This model is solidly designed from stem to stern and is highly detailed, allowing you to reenact all of your favorite battles.

   

Features:

 

A Full Compliment! The model is roughly to nanofigure scale and comes with several figures representing officers and crewmen.

Head Below! Two separately removable deck sections allow access to the gundeck. That deck is complete for display or play with, stairs, ladders, cannons, carronades, powder kegs, and even bilge pumps.

Stowing Away? A section of the hull may be removed to access the cargo hold belowdecks.

Raise Anchors! Spin the Capstan to raise the anchors. The pulleys are hidden out of sight so as not to distract from play or display.

We’re Going to Need a Bigger Bottle: At nearly 2400 pieces, this model measures 74.1cm (2.4ft) long and 65.3cm (2.1ft) tall without the display base.

  

So unfurl the mains and set sail with this Eagle of the Sea!

USS Constitution is a wooden-hulled, three-masted heavy frigate of the United States Navy. Named by President George Washington after the Constitution of the United States of America, she is the world's oldest floating commissioned naval vessel.

 

Launched in 1797, Constitution was one of six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794 and the third constructed. Joshua Humphreys designed the frigates to be the young Navy's capital ships, and so Constitution and her sisters were larger and more heavily armed and built than standard frigates of the period. Built in Boston, Massachusetts at Edmund Hartt's shipyard, her first duties with the newly formed United States Navy were to provide protection for American merchant shipping during the Quasi-War with France and to defeat the Barbary pirates in the First Barbary War. - Wikipedia

This is Constance, the Constitution Cow. She was a member of CowParade Harrisburg 2004 a public art exhibition of fiberglass cows transformed by artists into pieces of art. Constance was hand painted with the lettering, signatures and text of the U.S. Constitution by Philadelphia artist Mari Hoggs. In 2004 she moved to Philadelphia and found her place in the National Constitution Center where I found her on our visit on 08APR2007. (BTW this concludes that Easter trip 2007. Thank you for all your comments, invites and faves).

Today, the world breathes a sigh of relief. America is again ruled by a president who embraces all the people and wants to communicate respectfully with states and institutions around the world. Congrats and good luck!
