Quite valid, in the underwater shot's you can see the STRING they tow the sub' with , it's a standard shot for nearly every yank sub' film of that era. . . a bit like our MK2 (white) Jag going over a cliff in a car chase , in the gangster movies  %%

One of Bernie Wood's subs appeared in the video for Bruce Dickinson's solo album "Tattooed Millionaire". (For the uninitiated, Bruce Dickinson is (was?) the singer in the rock band Iron Maiden)
he's also an airline pilot.....

....or the white Renault Dauphine in all of the ITC goodie/baddie serieses of the '50s (Saint, Baron etc).  It was always one when it left the cliff top, whatever it was before it went over.  Although it was sometimes a Ford Pop when it landed.

Stay Lucky episode The Driving Instructor (1993), featuring a Model Ship (made of glass).
Also seen in the above screencap - Samantha Mansfield (Susan George) and Thomas Gynn (Dennis Waterman), also in the background - Alex (Dougray Scott) and Pippa O'Connor (Emma Wray).
Sadly, the Model Ship (made of glass) seen in the above screencap, was soon to be accidentally knocked over by Thomas (Dennis Waterman), fell to the floor, and was smashed into bits.

I'll stand to be corrected, but at 50" in length its a bit small to be used in movies, its usually 10ft as a minimum. Again, although the build quality is good, it would not stand up to being used as a movie prop.

This might help your search until someone else comes along with more info......

I can see a name on the starboard bow, try searching the movie site for it.

Hi Brian, I know your post seems a bit disjointed but I've split your post out of the "carpetbagger" trying to get a free valuation for his 'attic find' !   >:-o

Your post is better suited here..... interesting site!

Buster- The story of the Great Train Robber, Buster Edwards. A model sailing ship appears in a couple of scenes. It can be seen in this youtube clip in the swimming pool (approx 5.50 into the clip).
