Bounce sticks for artillery and pre-plotted unit order charts. Good stuff.

Magical stuff from yesteryear!
Remember those model aeroplanes you built with bits of balsa pinned/glued on top of a template thingy? I made a full size template of Charles Grant's 'grape shot' device. The resulting balsa wood construction was a wonder to behold, but, much like said balsa wood aircraft...
it smashed itself to smithereens on it's first sortie!

Thanks David for sharing! A trip down memory lane. Actually surprised Advertising Standards didn't take Hinchcliffe to task for those line illustrations of their products that don't look much like what they actually made!

Lol. I think there were a few companies guilty of that back in the day!
