Clipper Bound for SF
$475.00
“Clipper Bound for SF” black and white scrimshaw on ancient mammoth tusk ivory bark by Gerry Dupont. Fast clipper ships were the main means of transportation from the East Coast to San Francisco and the gold fields. At one time there were over 600 abandoned vessels in San Francisco Bay as whole crews would jump ship and head to the gold fields. Nice piece of mammoth ivory and Dupont has done it justice with this gem.
