Has anyone seen a horn this size? It is amazing! I am overhauling a GEM for a gentleman and this is the horn he has for it.

Re: Tiny horn for a GEM?
Looks like an (H&S - Hawthorne and Shebble brand) Aftermarket horn of the same period. A Tea-Tray Aftermarket Horn brand of the same period would look similar.... but I think its an H&S horn. It's certainly not an original Edison horn.
Others will chime in with their thoughts...

That hanger's not right for a Hawthorne & Sheble. It looks more like the one for the Standard Metal Manufacturing Company.NEFaurora wrote:Looks like an (H&S - Hawthorne and Shebble brand) Aftermarket horn of the same period.
