Ladies and gents:
My brother and I are conjecturing what horn my new Victor would look coolest with! It's a 1907 Vic III finally arrived from Colorado. As a fixer upper it's kind of impressive, as it's nearly perfect cosmetically. The motor appears to have blown up a spring, tearing up the winding ratchet click spring and stress-cracking the slotted crank. Somebody almost got a phonograph Ford fracture. Well, after that '29 Panatrope, an old Vic ought to be a relaxing and calming project.
Which horn would give best sound and looks on a Victor, and for a 1907 model, what is the stock base-model horn?
Also, what size do I need? It has the original elbow.
Wood is cool but I don't know if I should even consider it now--that kind of horn is worth about as much as my car!
