Vintage Wooden Toy Cannon – “Kiddy” – Spring-loaded – 1950s In excellent condition – No reserve. A rare and highly charming mid-century wooden toy cannon, produced circa 1950s and marked “Kiddy”. This is not a static display piece — it is a fully functional mechanical toy, complete with its original spring-loaded firing mechanism and wooden projectiles. This type of toy reflects the post-war era fascination with mechanical ingenuity and durable craftsmanship. Unlike later plastic toys, pieces like this were built to last, using solid wood and simple yet effective engineering — making them highly collectible today. What immediately stands out is the honest patina: beautifully aged wood, worn painted wheels, and the unmistakable tactile quality of a well-loved but well-preserved object. The design is both playful and surprisingly technical, with a visible spring mechanism and six “shells.” Key features: Original spring-loaded firing system – fully functional Includes six wooden shells/projectiles Marked “Kiddy” on the front plate Solid wood construction with metal spring mechanism Condition: In excellent vintage condition. No cracks or structural damage. Mechanism works properly and fires as intended. Light wear consistent with age and use, enhancing its authenticity. Dimensions: 11 x 25 x 13 cm (height × width × depth) A true eye-catcher with mechanical charm and nostalgic appeal.
