OcCre 1:50 Polaris Starter Pack

The USS Polaris was a screw-steamer procured by the Union Navy in 1864, and was originally called ‘The America,’ before becoming the USS Periwinkle during the closing months of the American Civil War. When the war ended, the ship was reacquired by the U.S. Navy, and subsequently renamed the Polaris in 1871. She became the designated vessel of the Hall scientific expedition to the North Pole.
