OK  :) Here is a photo I took at Christmas 1982 . This is a photo of a photo but its pretty good .

And whinning about the quality of the pic will not earn you any points ,in fact there no points to earn ,regaudless of the rumors .  ;)

The first one to tell me the location will win NOTHING but as we seem to be starved for something to talk about at the moment , maybe someone will have been at this spot ?

Too modern a gun to be Bunker Hill, inviting target notwithstanding.

Mr president I do not cling to either my gun or my Bible.... my gun is holstered on my side so I may carry my Bible and quote from it!

This is a photo of a jigsaw puzzel I put together years ago.  Looks like the same gun posed just a little different.

Allen already guessed the picture is on your kitchen table!  Does he win nothing?

     The contest master can't stand the suspense.  The Highest quality hints come from the legendary crooner, Frank Sinatra.  Try the third stanza of "Love is a Many Splendored Thing".

Tracy
Smokin' my pipe on the mountings, sniffin' the mornin'-cool,
I walks in my old brown gaiters along o' my old brown mule,
With seventy gunners be'ind me, an' never a beggar forgets
It's only the pick of the Army that handles the dear little pets - 'Tss! 'Tss!

From the poem  Screw-Guns  by Rudyard Kipling

I have a picture of that gun taken twenty years earlier. It has to be one of the most photographed cannons on any Civil War battlefield.
