Description:

Standard blank firing, breech loading Winchester signal cannon. The cannon is designed to fire a 10 gauge 2 7/8 inch blank cartridge only. The top of the barrel is marked "NOT FOR BALL", the right rear is marked with the two line address/patent dates and "10GA.", "WINCHESTER/-TRADE MARK-" on the opposite, serial number on the bottom and the Winchester oval proof on top at the breech. The cannon is mounted on a cast iron carriage with two metal wheels. Both sides of the carriage are marked "W.R.A. Co./TRADE MARK/MADE IN U.S.A.". Complete in a wooden Winchester crate with standard red letter markings and operating instructions.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The barrel is mostly a mottled gray patina with some dark areas on the breech end and some minor oxidation. The carriage and wheels retain 95% original black finish with a couple of small areas of flaking. The markings are clear. Functions properly.
