A Look at MPC's Breech Loading Cannon's - Pt 8 (Final) Non-Shooting Cannon with Spoked Wheels - Olive Green SP

This is gonna wrap it up for the whole MPC/Multiple Plastics/Miner Industries gaggle of cannon's - at least until I find and photograph more variations.

From the later 'safer' era of '70s playsets comes this cannon without a spring or rubber band to allow it to fire (and there was no ammo included in the set). This was taken directly from the Miner Industries Playset No. 1753 Army Action Squadron Task Force. It's odd in that here we have a spoked wheel cannon included in a set which represents mid-20th century warfare! Huh? Well, as I've learned from buying several of these sets, Miner Industries threw whatever they had into what - I have been told - were excess boxes! No two of my set contents in this same box are alike! Enjoy! Opa Fritz
