Ship's Wheel from the "Princess Kathleen"
Large wooden ship's wheel. At center is a large brass hub from which eight wooden spokes protrude. Printing on the hub says the following: "BROWN'S PATENT STEAM TILLER." Spokes are held together at the end by wood cut to fit between them. These pieces of wood create a ring, approximately 6.0 inches from the handles on the end of the spokes. The wooden ring is capped with a circular brass plate.
