Additional Information: Some pieces on top front of the boat were re-glued and there is some paint touch-up on the hull. BOUCHER BARRACUDA CABIN CRUISER & CATALOG. This is perhaps the largest of the live steam Boucher boats. It measures an incredible 46″ in length and the girth is close to 12″. A large steam boiler is within the passenger compartment and the boat is constructed entirely of wood. The upper deck area is primarily finished in natural wood and varnished with green roofing to the cabin areas. The transom is also finished in natural wood with a rudder control extending out the rear and an exhaust pipe also extending out the rear. Sides are in white enamel with a yellow stripe at waterline and a green hull. Accompanying the lot is a 1929 Boucher catalog illustrating many of the boats that they produced and sold (this item not pictured) along with their toy train line. SIZE: 46″ l. CONDITION: Overall condition is very good plus. Most likely sides and hull have been repainted at some point in time. 1-11776, 1-11778 (4,000-5,000) Auction: Advertising, Toy & Doll - Spring 2012 Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price.
