Please help (again…) to identify this horn (Zonophone?)

Post by phonodesbois »

This horn looks like the Zonophone horns which came with the Zonophone Europen machines but it’s bigger.
Length is around 46cm, large bell is 29.5cm and the other end measures around 2.9cm. I don’t have the elbow and I really don’t know on which machine (front mount?) it was used.
Thanks a lot,
Jeff

I've got that machine with that horn! Unfortunately I can't recall what model it is. I do know it was one of the most expensive models the German affiliate produced though.

If it's German, could it be for an Odeon machine?

Do you remember if it is a Zonophone or Odeon machine? Front or back mount?

I think Odeon is possible as is Symphonium and Nicole.

It's definitely a Zonophone front mount.
