GENERAL INFORMATION. Baston designed a Yankee Clipper Ship for the Resolute Insurance Company. A year later he replaced the Resolute name with "Yankee Clipper" and distributed it through his stores. In 1957 he was asked to create a gift for Salem and Marblehead Rotary guest speakers so he cast the club titles into the base as special awards.
