Anyone want to buy a cannon?


Recommended Posts

I purchased a deck cannon 2 years ago from a prop house in Hollywood that had built 20 or so of them for the " Hook" movie. After going through several statue manufacturers, I found one that has cast a mold of the cannon for me that is top notch. The cannon barrel is fiberglass ( much lighter than the real thing) and can be rigged to fire special effects from it. The original's carriage is made from oak, but I had the company cast it in fiberglass as well. I am ready to start production on them with an order of 10 barrels, and I am wondering if there are a few interested in purchasing them. I'm looking to get $ 250 for a barrel or $750 for both barrel and carriage. Pictures will come soon. Actually the Callenish Gunner has a pic of the original ( as seen at PiP) this past year. They are life- size and easy to carry about!
