Passenger Steamer Kansas City

This model is unique in that all of the figures and items on board the ship had to be hand-crafted, right down to the tableware, coal, cotton bales and meat in the freezer. This painstaking attention to detail is a hallmark of Hitchcock models.

Twelve foot cutaway model by William E. and Christopher N. Hitchcock for Ships of the Sea Museum in Savannah, Georgia. Some of the images will enlarge when you click on them; the others are in the process of being scanned in.

Read about this model in the October 17, 1999 issue of Savannah Now newspaper.
