Model Ship Builders - Pierre & Jacques Mailliere - FranceThis 1/48 scale model of the Bonhomme Richard was constructed by father and son. Mr. Pierre Mailliere had originally started this build. Having passed away before having a chance to finish it, his son completed construction of this exquisit model over a period of 8 years. It is a true testament to fine craftsmanship.
