Description

WHALE IVORY AND BALEEN PRESENTATION WALKING STICK
England, Dated 1854
Commemorates the clipper ship Champion of the Seas setting the world speed record December 10, 1854, when she traveled 465 nautical miles in 24 hours while under the command of Alexander Newlands. Whale ivory capstan-form handle divided into eight segments with baleen spacers, each segment with inlaid gold numbers "1", "2", "1", "0", "1", "8", "5" and "4", forming the date she set the record (12/10/1854). Alternating segments with inlaid gold lettering "Captain", "Alexander Newlands", "Champion of the Seas" and "465 Nautical Miles". Whale ivory and baleen ship's wheel pattern at top of handle. Malacca shaft with gold collar, gold-rimmed holes for wrist cord (no cord present) and hardwood ferrule.
Length 39.25".
Notes:
The clipper ship Champion of the Seas was built by Donald McKay for the Black Ball Line. She was launched April 19, 1854. Her 24-hour world speed record stood for nearly 130 years, until August 1984. Provenance to a private Nantucket collection for the last 20 years.
