An item described as a “very rare original” Avro Lancaster mid upper gun turret has hit the market. The listing states:

Aluminium parts in good condition considering its age, sadly the perspex sections have been broken but enough left to make templates if required. Perfect for a turret restoration as the frame is in good condition and complete. Built by Nash and Thompson, I haven’t cleaned the manufacturers plate too much as it seems to have suffered worse from corrosion and I don’t want to damage it. It is quite large, approx 1.8m wide.

The turret is located in Peterborough, United Kingdom and is being offered for £2,250 (or about US $2,981.93), although bids are also being accepted. Click here to check out the complete listing on eBay.
