Very attractive bookend made from reclaimed wood removed from the hull of the USS Constitution during its 1927 renovation, measuring 6.75″ x 3.75″ x 7.25″, with the original bronze plate attached to the plinth: "This material was taken from the original hull of the U.S. Frigate Constitution, Keel laid 1794, Rebuilding 1927." This uncommon example was shaped in the form of a breech of a muzzle-loading cannon, showing both trunnions and cascabel. In fine condition.
