Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
This sweet little lightweight "Princess" cannon was built specifically for "Circus Circus" Here it is being tested on the front lawn of Elvin's Laurel estate with the lovely Joanna a French Canadian aerialist being utilized as the dummy The remote control unit has the hydraulic pump & all the electronic operating stuff as well as a closed circuit TV system with 3 cameras in the barrel to show operation Rigging this from beams that were 10 feet above the false ceiling was a real treat
