§§- 21cm M 16 à Hindmarsh, Australie (puis collection Peter Jackson - NZ)
De la part de Charlie Clelland
Hi Bernard,
21 cm Morser, originally given by the French Govt in 1924 to Australia and allocated to Hindmarsh, South Australia. It was acquired by a private collector
when the local council found they couldn't afford to restore the gun. It was sold last year (2011) to the Peter Jackson Collection in New Zealand.
The serial no. of the 21cm howitzer is #853.
Regards,
Charlie
