This lot features a finely crafted scale model of the USS Indianapolis, one of the most iconic warships in United States naval history. The model is meticulously detailed, showcasing the ship's distinctive design, armament, and superstructure, mounted on an elegant wooden base with brass supports. Accompanying the model is a copy of Warship Pictorial No. 10: Indianapolis & Portland, a comprehensive photographic album providing historical context and insights into the ship's service and significance. The USS Indianapolis (CA-35) was a Portland-class heavy cruiser commissioned in 1932. It gained historical prominence as the flagship of the Fifth Fleet during World War II and for delivering critical components of the atomic bomb to Tinian Island. Tragically, the ship was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine in July 1945, leading to one of the most harrowing survival stories in naval history. This model pays tribute to the Indianapolis' valor and enduring legacy. Historical Relevance: USS Indianapolis Service Record: Known for its speed and versatility, the USS Indianapolis served as a vital asset in the Pacific Theater during World War II, participating in numerous battles and critical missions. Atomic Bomb Mission: The cruiser transported components for the atomic bomb "Little Boy," which was later dropped on Hiroshima, marking a pivotal moment in the war. Legacy of Sacrifice: After completing its mission, the Indianapolis was sunk in one of the worst naval disasters in U.S. history, with only 316 of its nearly 1,200 crew surviving. This event underscores the ship's place in naval history and the valor of its crew. This item has a base included. Issued: 20th centuryDimensions: 36.50"L x 6"W x 12.50"HCondition: Age related wear.
