Curious about Wooden Canoes
Hello ..I am a collector of antique signal/salute cannons of the 1880s to early 1900 era........One Manufacter from New Haven Ct. R.H Brown & Co. gave the title of "canoe cannon" to thier smallest, bronze, breech loading, blank ,cartridge , signal, cannon... all the larger sizes were classified as Yacht cannons on thier Naval carriages...I have been searching for old original photos of one of these little cannons actually mounted on a canoe!.I would guess this would be an accessory for the man that had everything!...I will try to post some advertising,I have for this cannon....Thanks All!
