The plaque has a few scratches, but that original painting of the boat is just too cool!

 

 

I know, that is really eye-catching!

 

In my opinion, you got the better of the two!

I picked up the plaque with the boat today. The woman I bought it from used to be the next door neighbor of the officer named on the plaques./. I don't think she was the one who sold the plaque on ebay. I also got a set of mini medals which she says were also his. It has a Navy Good Conduct Medal so I'm thinking he was an enlisted man who was commissioned.
