What you got here is a brand new never used authentic 1:500 scale replica of the original battleship . It has been built for the discriminating collector and should be treated with the care a fine collectible deserves . The USS New Jersey is one of the most decorated and longest serving american battleships. She was a symbol of american strength and determination in the pacific during war world II, and played a key role in many victories. Her might was demonstrated again in the korean and vietnam conflicts, providing shore bombardment and protection for the US aircraft carriers. Having earned an incredible fifteen battle stars, the USS New Jersey now serves as a floating museum in Camden, New Jersey, and this is limited edition 94 from 2,500 which is a low number for collectors looking for a low number and each plate has been signed by the three of the following participants: 1-Vice Admiral Douglas J.

Mate 3rd Class Robert La Vine Again this is a brand new never used item in a non-Smoking free environment,,,and it measures almost 24 inch Long which is a big size ship and the craftsmanship its just phenomenal and hard to find collectors item and its been sold out long time ago,,, and it comes with all of its papers and certificate. Please just serious bidders only and negative feedback shall be given and reported to Ebay if not paid in 3 business day. Off note it should be noted that when i opened the box there is a opening on the side which can be glued back but i did not want to touch it,,but when displayed its on the opposite side of the signed plates and history plates so it does not show when its been displayed so again please read carefully before bidding but it should be noted. Again one of a kind item beautifully crafted and meticulously hand painted and available exclusively from the Danbury mint which has been sold out since it was produced and sold sometime between 2006-2007. Good luck and and if you have any questions please feel free to ask them again thanks for looking at my item and have a nice day.
