You are bidding on a very nice model ship U.S.S. Constitution ship. We know very little about this model ship as we are not the original owners of this item, I will do my best to describe the boat. The age of the model is not known, the main structure is made from solid wood and is very detailed. This item measures about 17 1/2" in total length and 15 1/2" tall and 3" wide. This item weighs about 2 pounds. There are a few issues I can notice on this ship, one being that the back mast is slightly cracked, does not stop the mast from standing straight but thought the buyer should know, one of the blocks ontop of the ship deck looks like it is missing. Other than that I will let you judge from the pictures because I know very little about this item. 

A little History From Wikipedia:

USS Constitution, known as "Old Ironsides," is a wooden-hulled, three-masted heavy frigate of the United States Navy. Named after the United States Constitution, she is the oldest commissioned ship afloat in the world. The Constitution was one of the six original frigates authorized for construction by the Naval Act of 1794 and was launched in 1797. Joshua Humphreys designed them to be the Navy's capital ships and so Constitution and her sisters were larger and more heavily armed than the standard frigates of the period.

In 1917 she was renamed to Old Constitution, to free the name for a new Constitution, a Lexington-class battle cruiser that was never completed. She resumed the name Constitution in 1925 after the new hull was canceled. In early 1941, Constitution was assigned the hull classification symbol IX-21[1] (the "IX" hull code stands for "Unclassified Miscellaneous"), but was reclassified to "none" on 1 September 1975.[2]

The modern day role of "Old Ironsides" is that of "ship of state". The crew of 55 sailors participates in ceremonies, educational programs and special events (including sail drill) while keeping the ship open to visitors year-round and providing free tours. The crew are all active-duty sailors in the Navy and the assignment is considered a special duty. Traditionally, the duty of captain of the vessel is assigned to an active duty Navy commander.
