18th Century Naval Cannon, from Innovation Company, New York, 1946. This model of the cannon used on the Constitution, 'Old Ironsides', is in good condition overall. This great old kit contains heavy brass and wooden parts to build a well detailed 18th century naval cannon model. Barrel is over 7 inches long. Wooden brackets have already been assembled, sanded, and stained. Only part that I can see that is missing are one piece of gear axle hub, which can be easily made from a piece of 1/4" wooden dowel. Includes instruction sheet, original box with clear tape on edges and a 2 inch square piece missing out of box on top left side of flap. Bottles of lacquer and stain are dried out. Box insert present with a tear at upper right corner. Very unusual item we've never seen before. Price $350.00 |
