Product Description:
You are looking at a Liberty Ship Hatch Cover – Unfinished. This item we received from a man who lives in Chicago and was a collector of these liberty hatch covers for many years.
Not all of our hatch covers look exactly like this! Some have more wear and tear, lighter colored wood. We will work on getting more pictures on site soon.
This has not yet been finished or converted into any furniture. The perfect item for someone to purchase if they have a specific project in mind.
You maybe be wondering what a liberty hatch cover is. Liberty hatch covers (door) are the last true wooden hatch covers that were made specifically for the Liberty Ships in World War II. These were built into the floors of the ship. Liberty ships were built to be used as workhorses during the war, and only 2710 of these ships were built to serve this purpose.
