Summary
Wooden toy cannon attached at the centre to a green painted wooden frame. This frame is square at one end and tapers at the other. The two sides of the frame are joined by two pieces of wood, one at each end. The cannon is painted yellow with a hollow inside. At one end, the firing mechanism can be pulled out slightly as it is attached to a piece of wood. The cannon's middle has a piece of wood going through it so that it can be moved up and down upon the wooden frame.
