Revolving Shooting Gallery Target with 8 Airplanes

made by W.F. Mangels Co. of Coney Island, New York.
 

Complete and all original with exceptional early park paint.  The disc rotates freely and the airplanes function perfectly.  This was the main center piece of a major Mangels gallery.  It was originally shown with only the top half visible.  As it rotated the airplanes came up on the right side and when shot slid down the bar to be reset by gravity when they got to the bottom.  There is only one other complete example of this target known.  This is a large scale target, 56" in diameter.  It is truly a stunning object.

The target has been professionally mounted.  It is very heavy and needs to be supported by the floor.  The mounting system is designed to be secured to a stud and extending within the wall to the floor.  When installed properly the stand will not be visible.  An adapter for use as a floor stand is also included.
