HISTORY
The ship models of the Henry Huddleston Rogers Collection, bequeathed to the United States Naval Academy in 1935 and received in 1938, are displayed in several locations at the Academy. There is no one space available large enough to display them all together.
According to the terms of Colonel Rogers' will there were three conditions the Congress of the United States had to meet in accepting the bequest: (1) to keep the models together as a Collection at the Naval Academy and suitably displayed, their locations to be approved by the Executors of the estate (the Executors subsequently approved the locations); (2) to provide a competent modelmaker at an adequate salary to care for the models; and (3) to provide a sum of money annually for their upkeep and maintenance. These conditions were agreed to by the Congress. Mr. Frederick Avery, an internationally known expert modelmaker who had previously been engaged by Colonel Rogers for three years to look after the models on the Colonel's estate, "Port of Missing Men," Southampton, Long Island, N.Y., was secured as the one best fitted to comply with the terms of the will. Mr. Avery was a member of the Museum Staff from 1938 until his retirement in 1953.
