I have not found any connection to the Sunderland hero Jack Crawford.

Would you be able to tell me how much it is worth and where I might be able to try selling it. It does need work and is currently in St Lucia. Thanks for your help Best Val Hi Ian

Geddington Court in the glass case. Her father passed on a few years ago. The model needs some work as the upper white paintwork on the hull has flaked into a powder form. The rest of the hull is in need of a restoration and the rigging is 95% intact. It needs some tender loving care. The glass case is needs some attention in the form of a good sand down filling and varnishing. You could make it restoration project of the actual model which woould save you plenty time of starting from scratch. This model resides in the Carribean at the moment. Regards Wilbert Dear Larry,
