A part of the frame of USS Niagara (1813) on display at the National Museum of the Great Lakes.

While I have known about the USS Niagara that still sails the Great Lakes, until relatively recently I thought she was entirely a modern replica and not the original vessel—although the "original" part can be disputed after so many extensive restorations (Niagara was also sunk in 1820 and raised in 1913).

Brig Niagara (her current incarnation) in full sail off South Bass Island, Lake Erie, photography by Lance Woodworth.

Also in the Great Lakes Museum: a cribbage board made from a piece of Niagara!

I'm reminded of the long and busy trade in objects allegedly made from pieces of HMS Victory and other famous ships.
