1. Product description of King Mississippi Steam Ship Model

A brief overview of the King of Mississippi L76 and its unique features

The King of Mississippi, renowned as a steam-powered vessel navigating the waters of the Mississippi River, gained fame through its depiction in Mark Twain's iconic novels, "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Finn." Now, it is meticulously recreated as a fully assembled model, ready to grace any space as a cherished piece of history.

Crafted by master artisans, these exquisite wooden models are painstakingly built from scratch, drawing upon historical photographs, drawings, and original plans for accuracy. Constructed to scale using premium materials such as western red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany, each model is individually handcrafted using the plank-on-frame construction method, mirroring the techniques employed in crafting actual ships. With each model requiring hundreds of hours to complete, rigorous quality control measures are undertaken before they depart the workshop.

The King of Mississippi model boasts a four-level deck adorned with intricate details. From the wooden steam propeller at the stern to the accessible cabin space on the first deck, each floor features its own staircase for navigation. Metal railings grace each level, while the vessel's distinctive four black smoke stacks tower proudly from the third and fourth decks.

Securely mounted on a sturdy wooden base with a brass nameplate, this model is an ideal gift for home or office decor enthusiasts, maritime aficionados, or dedicated collectors alike

2. The History of the King of Mississippi L76 

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, famous characters from books, were linked to the Mississippi River, where boats did a lot of different jobs. These boats were crucial for trading cotton and moving things across the river like barges and trains. 

They also carried passengers, making America feel smaller, and they were like traveling shows, making the big country seem less lonely. The King of Mississippi was the very first boat of its kind in the United States.
