WELCOME TO PURSERSLOCKER'S WEEKLY LISTINGS. I SELL A WIDE RANGE OF QUALITY OCEAN LINER AND 20TH CENTURY DECORATIVE ARTS, SOME ITEMS COME DIRECT FROM MY COLLECTION, WHILST OTHERS ARE RECENT DISCOVERIES AND ARE FRESH TO THE COLLECTORS MARKET.

LIKEWISE IF YOU HAVE ITEMS THAT YOU FEEL I MAY BE INTERESTED IN PLEASE CONTACT ME, I DO PURCHASE SINGLE ITEMS TO WHOLE COLLECTIONS. I REGULARLY SELL ITEMS OF FURNITURE AND FIXTURES FROM THE GREAT OCEAN LINERS OF YESTERYEAR, INCLUDING OLYMPIC, MAURETANIA AND THE QUEENS SO PLEASE CHECK MY OTHER LISTINGS.
UNITED STATES LINES, SS "UNITED STATES", C-1960'S ORIGINAL TRAVEL AGENTS DESK MODEL. MADE BY SPECIAL ORDER TO TRIANG MINIC, THIS IS BASICALLY THE STANDARD TRIANG TOY YOU COULD BUY, EXCEPT THIS WAS A SPECIAL ORDER, WHEREAS THE USUAL MODELS HAVE FIXED COLOURS AND PLAIN WHITE DECKS, THE SPECIAL ORDER HAD FULL HAND PAINTED FUNNELS IN A MORE CORRECT USL TONE, AND THE DECKS ALSO PAINTED GREEN TO MATCH THOSE OF THE ACTUAL LINER ITSELF. THESE MODELS WERE ALSO INSTALLED AND FITTED ON TOP STONE BASES, I THINK A FORM OF RECONSTITUTED ALABASTER, THEY ALSO CAME IN A CREAM STONE AND A PINK STONE. ENGRAVED WITH THE COMPANY NAME AND IN FILLED WITH BLACK PAINT TO ONE SIDE.
THESE MODELS MAY WELL HAVE ALSO BEEN SOLD ONBOARD.
IN CONDITION A SHOWN, PLEASE CONSULT AND SEE PICTURES.
THERE'S A SLIGHT KNOCK TO THE BACK RIGHT HAND CORNER (SEE PICTURES) ON THE ALABASTER BASE, HARDLY NOTICEABLE AND STILL DISPLAYS WELL, ONLY MENTIONED FOR TOTAL ACCURACY.
IT WAS MISSING ITS ORIGINAL MAST SO I ORDERED A COMPANY THAN MANUFACTURES THEM FOR A METAL REPLACEMENT, YOU WOULD NOT KNOW, ONLY MENTIONED FOR TOTAL ACCURACY, OTHERWISE IN FINE CONDITION, BOTH FUNNEL FINS IN PLACE AND NOT DAMAGED IN GOOD CONDITION, WHICH IS OFTEN A COMPLAINT ON THESE.
