Scale: 1:48. A contemporary block design model of a 44-gun small two-decker (circa 1750). An accompanying label reads ‘P’ and, ‘Ship of 40-44-guns, about 1750 (?) catalogued (1923) under No 10 as ”Ship of 40-44-guns, about 1750 (?)”. The dimensions are roughly those of a 44-gun ship of 1760-90 but the model appears earlier. The stern post is much more upright than in most English ships. The 'America' (or 'Boston') 44 built in America in 1750 had some 6ft greater length than its English built contemporaries on the Establishments of 1745 and thus agrees well with the model, but this can not be considered as more than a very tentative identification’. The gun ports are painted on the side of the hull in red.
