T. Cohn Naval Base Playset

This week we've been featuring parts and pieces from the T. Cohn Naval Base playset and today we put it all together. There is a caveat though, in that I don't have a complete set. There are at least two fence pieces missing, none of the figures are here, some of the detail parts are gone, and the box is AWOL!. However, there's enough here to still make a really nice set-up. 

The playset consists of two main elements;

1) The tin-litho compound base (22"L x 12 3/8" W x 1" H) comprised of the warehouse, huge dock crane and staging area all of which would normally be enclosed by soft plastic fence pieces.

2) The docks consisting of: a paper seawater mat (22" L x 12" W); four tin-litho piers; and three ships (destroyer, aircraft carrier, freighter)

The overall height fro the bottom of the base to the top of the crane is 14 1/4"

I decided to just plaster a whole bunch of photos from a variety of angles so you can get a feel for what this thing looks like. Enjoy!


You'll notice I forgot to attach the masts on the Freighter when I took these shots - oops!

T. Cohn Naval Base Ships

Yesterday we looked at the vehicles which came with the T. Cohn Naval Base playset. Today we'll look at the ships of which there were three, a destroyer, an aircraft carrier, and a freighter. All three ships have wheels underneath allowing them to be rolled across the floor. Like so many old toys some of my stuff has issues as you'll see when looking at the photos. Enjoy!

My destroyer has been torpedoed!
Besides the big hole in the hull, there are some deck portions broken as well as some missing pieces.
Measures: 9 1/2" L x 2 1/8" H x 1 7/8" W













Aircraft carrier. Measures: 9 5/8" L x 2 1/4" H x 2 5/8" W













Freighter
Missing a couple of deck cranes
Measures: 9 1/4" L x 2 1/2" H x 2 7/8" W
