USS MASSACHUSETTS BB-59
 battleship model

Battleship Massachusetts, known by her crew as "Big Mamie," was assigned as flagship for a covering force of warships supporting the invasion of North Africa, "Operation Torch."  On November 8, 1942, she engaged the French battleship Jean Bart in a gun duel and fired the first American 16" projectile of World War II.  By the end of the day she had fired more than 700 16" projectiles, silencing the Jean Bart and contributing to the sinking of five enemy ships.

On August 9, 1945, during a bombardment of the ironworks in Kamaishi, Honshu, Big Mamie fired the war's last 16" shell.  Over the course of the war, she sank 5 enemy ships and shot down 39 aircrafts. She earned 11 battle stars for her World War II service and never lost a man in combat!

This primarily wood USS Massachusetts battleship features very beautiful wooden deck, not the cheap yellowish wood. It is 41" long x 11" tall x 6" wide (1/200 scale) $4,500 shipping and insurance in the US included. Other countries: $400 flat rate. 

23.5" long $2,900 shipping and insurance in the US included. Other countries: $250 flat rate. 

Models are built per commission only. We require only a small deposit to start the process (not full amount, not even half) $500   The remaining balance won't be due until the model is completed, in several months.
