Victor Monarch with unusual horn on C/L
Currently listed on Craigslist. Anyone ever seen a "horn" like this? Is it aftermarket or homemade? https://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/atq/d/ ... 51876.html

That's a rare aftermarket "horn". Albeit ugly...
A real steal at the stated minimum bid price! Interesting records included as well. Someone needs to jump on this.

If I lived nearby, it would be a no brainer... It's a great horn - how many have you seen?

That really is a beautiful horn . It matches the cabinet perfectly. Does anyone know who manufactured and sold it? I also wonder if there were any variations?

Count me in as another person who loves that horn. If it was in my country I'd be chasing it.
