Could it be that this was a machine gun sitting on the fuselage of a double decker plane from WWI. And the mechanism we see behind it-was connected to the propeller.
(most like not the correct answer) Markus

Coffman starter (this began to dawn on me when you said what you did about the artwork, so when you said "strictly piston" that had to be it)

Seen it used often but never seen the starter itself - I was thrown at first by the multiple chambers, expecting there to be just one
Okay, what is this and where?
