Title: Heinrich Pulverwagen in box Or Something else
Post by: captainsimos on June 28, 2023, 05:50:40 PM

This is another piece from a location I received. I am not sure what is written on the label is what is in the box. The box top has another description and number written in German. I would appreciate if someone could confirm what this piece is called. The boat is plastic.[attachimg=1]

Agree this I think is meant to represent a pontoon used for building bridges.  The blue color on the tabs and collar is interesting I am curious if that matches this type of unit in Prussia or perhaps Bavaria? 

The label says powder wagon so I wander if this box belongs to the other set of figures with the cannons?

The inscriptions read:115 gr[amm] - giving the weight of the box
32 Reiter [horsemen] .. Geschütze [guns]If that helps.

Thank you Kori, again the box and what is in it doesn't match.
