"Big Bertha" of Wood Is Shaped Like World War Gun

Item

One of the biggest guns ever made was transported through the streets of Hollywood recently on its way to be used in a new movie. Fashioned of wood, the gun is shaped like Germany's seventy-five mile cannon which shelled Paris during the World War. It weighs 6,500 pounds and is 100 feet long. The realistic model will make its appearance in Charlie Chaplin's film, “The Dictator,” which is now in production.
