J D Henwood; Cargo vessel

Scale: not calculated. Full hull model of the 'J D Henwood' (circa 1873), a 3-masted ship-rigged cargo vessel. We know that this model took E. Tarry Adams three years to make, because he has signed and dated it on the inside face of the main hatch cover. However it is not known whether such a vessel actually existed.
