Old Boat Antiques and Collectibles Special Items
Exceptional offers from the Maritime Antiques auction listings
Sale items in this section, which are taken from various listings we've discovered on eBay, have received a lot of bids, or at least one bid at a high amount. We take such interesting boating and nautical antiques and add a short article here, with information about the auction's bidding activity. When the auction is finished, we update the article to add what the outcome was — the final price, number of bids, and whether or not the reserve price was met (if not, the item may reappear in our listings).
You can use this section to research the final price of old boat collectibles or, if you sign up for the RSS feed, see the newest and most popular items while the auctions are still live on eBay.
(Remember that many, many more rare boating antiques and vintage collectibles are currently listed in the sections in the menu, so be sure to have a look at those too.)

It is a Mark 1, Model 0 US Navy BuShips N5422 by Mergenthaler Linotype Company of Brooklyn, NY.
