The Silent Service.  Whether fast-attack SSNs or  ballistic missile subs (SSBNs), all current boats are powered by nuclear reactors and have extensive wartime capabilities.  With the end of the Cold War, these sentinels of the deep have evolved to perform new missions, but always with the same stealth that has been their hallmark.  We've just added the latest and greatest!  We now are offering the terrific profile drawings by George Bieda of both Seawolf Class and Virginia Class nuke attack boats. 

This doesn't mean, however, that we've forgotten the old "Diesel Boats Forever" sailors.  We offer these also, in their fleet configurations, as well as witrh all the modifications.  SSRs and SSGs are also included.

Click the Nav Buttons on the left to view and purchase prints of any of these classes, or simply scroll down to see some great artwork depicting our unrivalled submarine fleet, past and present!  Remember, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to give us a call toll-free at 888-465-5389.

Enjoy!

Remember the Wahoo by Mark Karvon

As a tribute to the 80 officers and men of USS Wahoo SS 238 who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country on 11 OCT 1943, MarK Karvon offers this work.  USS Wahoo, under the con of her second captain, Dudley "Mush" Morton became famous for her successes against Japanese shipping and naval vessels.  The exact whereabouts of WAHOO remained a mystery until 2006, when she was found in the La Perouse Strait off the coast of Hokkaido, Japan, lying in about 210 feet of water.  She remains there today, "on eternal patrol."  This realistic portrayal of this Gato Class diesel boat is offered in two sizes, signed by the artist.  Prints are produced by high quality giclee printers on heavy-weight, acid-free archival stock.

USS Thomas A. Edison SSBN/SSN 610  - 2008 Reunion
in Saratoga Springs, NY

Crewmembers and their families will be getting together during the third week of May in this lovely location for the 2008 Reunion of the ship.  The THOMAS A. EDISON was commissioned on 10 March 1962 as a ballistic missile submarine, and served in this capacity until 1980, when her missile launch tubes were filled with concrete.  On 6 October 1980 she was redesignated as a nuclear attack submarine, SSN 610.  She was decommissioned on 1 December 1983.

With the assistance of members of the Reunion Committee, our profile artist, George Bieda, has produced 3 profile drawings of the USS Thomas A. Edison that represent the major configurations of the ship during her life.  We have made these drawings available at the Reunion, and are pleased to also offer them here.  The 3 drawings are pictured below -
