    Description

    Fantastic presentation
    Howitzer Cannon.
    It measures 14" x 4¾" x 8¾". A beautifully detailed scale model produced by Skodawerke arms factory for presentation purposes. The howitzer itself is constructed of brass with many applied details such as wheels, levers and gears. The large cannon sits on a marble base detailed to give it a rustic appearance. This cannon turns 360 degrees and the barrel will move up and down. A small brass plate is inserted into the rough cut red marble at front bearing the caption: "Howitzer Cannon, World War I". This plate may have been replaced at some point. It appears that the
    original
    plate read
    "

    This exceptional and very heavy piece is in excellent condition.
