It is built with a lot of exterior detail and wood working that gives the model a great deal of realism. The model stern wheeler paddles are animateable as is the rudders, the crane operated gangways. The struts that push the paddle wheel are also animateable.

This model is a great subject matter for river animations, western and historical animations and of course still frame animation.
The flat bottomed stern paddle wheeler was a common sight on the Mississippi Missouri and Ohio Rivers as well as others during the period from 1840 through the early 1900s.
