Antique Carnival Walking Stick or Cane – Cast Iron Duck – Cap – Bang Stick

This antique carnival walking “bang stick” dates from around the late 1800’s to early 1900’s. The top of the cane is a cast-iron duck head painted green and yellow. This cane was designed and used to set off paper caps for a surprising bang! The shaft of the cane is wood. John purchased year ago from Doc Mitchell a former dentist in Salina Kansas. Measures
