Atomic Cannon Model Kit

I think I’ve posted one of these Atomic Annie kits before, and I’ll no doubt do so in the future. This was a real thing in the early Cold War. Twenty were made, one was test fired in Nevada with a 15 kiloton warhead. The range of 20 miles made it considerably safer for the firer than the firee, I suppose.
