Harland & Wolff’s model of the Alcantara is up for $175,000

Those with immense interest in historical chronology and artefacts would be more than delighted to know that we just spotted the original model of the Alcantara, yes yes, the same ocean liner that endured gun shots during the Second World War. The model was built for Royal Mail Lines by Harland & Wolff and is now being offered at Daniels Antiques. For $175,000, it is an architectural beauty which would well embellish the drawing room of an ex-army man or anybody who’s a big collector of models.
