A stab in the dark, would be towed artillery.

Supporting that belief, you can read Travelling Front on the canvas below the reflector.

I don't quite understand why there would be a reflector at the Travelling Front though.
Would that not be a waste of time, unless used to reverse a vehicle for hitching !?!

Looks like two more lines of print under that as well, Tony.
