GLASS LANTERN SLIDE ITALIAN BATTLESHIP ANDREA DORIA STANDARD SIZE 3 inch LANTERN SLIDE VERY GOOD CONDITION, ANDREA DORIA (WRITTEN ON SLIDE MOUNT)
RUGGIERO DEI LAURIA CLASS BATTLESHIP COMPLETED 1891 STRICKEN 1911
This early all iron battleship saw the glorious end of the clipper sailing ships.
Its design would help win the first World War with the biggest steamships of their day.
Condition VERY GOOD. A rare view of an early battleship, linking the past with sailing ship masts and the iron-clad hulls. Out of date for the WW1, no wonder there are no museum ships of this class around today. WAS £45.00.
