Description: AMERICAN HISTORY: Model - "Half Moon" - New York Bay / Manhattan - Museum of City of New York: Halve Maen ((Half Moon) was a Dutch East India Company vlieboot (similar to a carrack) that sailed into what is now New York Harbor in September 1609. She was commissioned by the VOC Chamber of Amsterdam in the Dutch Republic to covertly find a western passage to China. The ship was captained by Henry Hudson, an Englishman in the service of the Dutch Republic. In 1909, the Kingdom of the Netherlands presented the United States with a replica of Halve Maen to commemorate the 300th anniversary of Hudson's voyage; the replica was destroyed in a fire in 1934. Fifty years later, the New Netherland Museum commissioned a second replica. This Linen Era (1930-45) postcard is in good condition.
