This thing's huge!
...if there wouldn't be that roof in the middle people who died in a car accident could drive with their cars directly on the barge...

I see there a lot of interesting parts, like the lanterns and the railings, I could need for my ship.

"Uh, I better look in the manual... This book must be out of date. I don't see "Prussia", "Siam" or "autogyro"...

Maybe I missed it, but where did the nifty lantern on the front come from?

It's brilliant work as usual...

It's from a company that makes parts for model ships, same as the back lanterns. I don't know the company name, never did, I was shown a catalogue by my local model shop in 1990 when I wanted to make a pirate ship and I just pointed and paid.
