Description

Mid 19th century or earlier, America. This piece of scrimshaw depicting a Naval battle between two American frigates and a single ship of unknown origin. The two American ships sailing right to left while being fired upon by the single opponent. The broadside signified by cloud of dark smoke. The scene enacted on a wavy sea with green toning, the American flag in red, white, and blue. *NOTE* The entry for this busk when offered and sold at Cowan’s Auctions Inc. in 2010 reads as follows: “Scribed with a sea battle scene between the USS Chasseur, American privateer clipper ship and an unknown British ship (possibly the HMS St. Lawrence). The Chasseur is from the shipyard of Thomas Kemp in Fells Point, Baltimore. She was captained by Thomas Boyle and was responsible for the sinking of at least 17 British ships during the War of 1812… After her return to the United States she was renamed The Pride of Baltimore.” SIZE: 1-1/2″ h x 7-1/2″ l.
