Lovely old model 3dog but I couldn't help with a value I'm afraid. You would really have to have a look at specialist antique model boat sources to get an idea.

Keeping an eye on Ebay might be worthwhile as well just to see what sort of prices these things fetch.

At the end of the day, and I know it sounds like a cliche, but it is worth what someone will pay for it. If you get a couple of keen buyers bidding against each other in an auction I could see it getting 100.00 pounds or more but if there is only one interested party it may be substantially less.

I think it is worth identifying it as, if it is a particularly sought after rare model, it may well be worth a lot more.

Try asking the guys here:

http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/Forum_1.htm

There is a lot of specialist boat expertise on that forum who may be able to help.

Apart from that a very warm welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your visits here and post pictures of your own models at some time.
