Boucher of New York Ship Model Boat New In Box

Our Boucher toy is immense and near new old stock & in search of a modeler; or collector. We have never seen such a beautiful setup with top grade wood coupled with brass fixtures and parts and with Blueprints. Extra pictures were added to show the extensive cannons, fixtures, propellers, rods, wood, and instructions included in this set. Boucher, a French naval architect employed by the United States Navy, made the observation that scale models, although in common use throughout Europe, were practically unknown in the United States. Consequently, he left Government service as the former head of the Navys model shops in Washington to establish his own company and later partnership with Patton Lewis in New York City.

During World War II and into the decades of the 50s and 60s the heavy demand for naval and commercial vessels resulted in record orders for models. Many still remain on display in maritime museums, yacht clubs and Government offices. Although best known for its marine models, the Boucher/Boucher-Lewis name is usually identified with the wide range of museum-quality models found in the most prestigious collections. Pictures included are of the actual item(s) for sale, colors may differ slightly in person due to lighting, cameras, or monitor settings.
