The next two slides show two ships blasting full broadsides at each other. Reminds me of a scene from one of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.
A nice static display of a stern wheeler probably from Showboat.
From one of the many World War 2 films of the time period maybe even my favorite The Incredible Mr. Limpet.

I sure have a lot of fun memories of Universal Studios; none of these miniature ships, though! These are great, I would love to see any photos from there.
I remember a tin roofed building that had rain falling on it all the time. Looks like that's it in the first photo to the right. Great pics!
I remember these! I would never had thought about it again if not for the photos, thank you very much! I do have to say every version of Showboat is an MGM picture, though, so the riverboat is most likely not from those movies.
These are really cool!
Riverboat (TV series) 1959
The Mississippi Gambler (1953)
Seven Ways to Sundown (1960)
used the Riverboat seen on the studio tour's Park lake which matches the model.
