EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of innovation and power in the form of the Maxim Automatic Gun. Patented by the brilliant mind of Hiram Stevens Maxim in 1882, this recoil-operated machine gun revolutionized warfare with its advanced technology. The image showcases intricate engravings that highlight every detail of this formidable weapon. The Maxim Automatic Gun stands tall, exuding strength and precision. Its sleek design is a testament to Maxim's ingenuity, as he sought to create a firearm that would surpass all others.

It now resides in a private collection, preserved for generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time when artillery played a crucial role on battlefields. The sight conjures images of soldiers donning tam o' shanters, readying themselves for combat alongside their trusty companion - the Maxim Automatic Gun.
