WOW! ANTIQUE 1910 RARE SOMERS SHIP ANCHOR BRASS MARINE SALESMAN SAMPLE, TITANIC!Up for sale is a superb example of a ship's anchor made by a historical British Somers foundry that also supplied parts for Titanic and other famous ships
. This is the number 4 model of an anchor called "Premier" made in the early 1900s. I've visited the company's website and found a photo with the exact year 1910. This sample could be from that year. It is all handmade with the fluke that moves against the shank of the anchor. The sample is made of brass and you can see the remains of silvering or plating. Back in the day, it was very common to create salesman samples with a silver appearance. The anchor shoes signs of wear, some scratches, but it still has all original parts and it has not been restored or repaired. I am selling it in the condition it was discovered in the collection of a person who had a passion for original salesman samples.
I can send this sample anywhere in the world, but the shipping of is for Canadian and USA customers only. Please ask me first for the rate if you live in a different country.
