If they can make these... why not put the effort into making authentic reproduction horns, not just replacement Crap-O horns? Cygnet horns and elbows along with other types used to be available as repros, but not for this kind of price - $65 plus free shipping... and these look like good quality.

Re: If they can make these...
Having owned one, unfortunately I can vouch for the fact that they certainly are not good quality. The metal is just too thin, it's almost like foil.

Re: If they can make these...
Not quite up to the scale of the Columbia horn it vaguely resembles. It's not clear if it's nickel plated or just polished steel.Dimensions:
14.00 inches Length
14.00 inches Diameter(Approx.)
