Horn Info

Post by PaulG »

Does anybody have any information on this horn? It measures 27" long with a 6" bell.
Looks like it's made out of some kind of wood or fiber.
Thanks,
Paul

Linenoid made other "typical" bell shaped phonograph horns out of a paper mache type material. Your horn is probably made from the same material and appears to be a recording horn, as opposed to a playing horn.
"The phonograph† is not of any commercial value."
