Chrome-Plated Cannon-Form Table Lighter - A vintage table lighter constructed of cast metal with a chrome-plated finish, designed in the form of a miniature field cannon.

The muzzle end is fitted with a large, flat-head slotted screw-in plug. The barrel is mounted to a carriage frame consisting of two multi-spoke wheels and a single elongated, curved trail. A white inventory string is tied around the rear of the trail. There are faint characters impressed into the flat underside of the carriage frame that are not legible as a name or mark.
