Many people have believed many things about Christopher Columbus. Not to be out done by so many of those things, The Spurious Nib has investigated an amazing advertisement from the October 12, 1503 edition of the Sevilla Noticias Diarias.
For Sale:
Set sail for Oak Island in your very own Spanish galleon! The Pinta may be used but you will still treasure this easy-to-maneuver old classic! Original ships wheel (you can still see Admiral Columbus's hand prints on her spindles!) Sure there are some oak rotted planks. But your crew will enjoy the long, prominent beakhead for working the sails of the bowsprit (& refurbished head)! The arrow heads in the bow give it that great vintage look. Nice mizzen masts. Four friendly rats. Fore & aft lighting. One bronze salute cannon. Needs new rigging.
