The Victor I was made for a long time. A big case (late) Victor I has a large elbow so the horns are different. Can you show us a photo of your Victor I?

Here are a few pictures. Maybe it will help. Someone over the years has bent the elbow I guess to direct the horn down more. The small end measures: 1 ⅛ inch and the larger end:
1 ¾. Maybe this will help. Thanks!

Here are a few pictures. As you can see the elbow was bent over time.

I think your elbow could easily be straightened. Jerry

It's hard to tell the size of the elbow without measurements or something in the photo to reference the size. But I am assuming it is Victor's smallest elbow. I have seen the smallest Victor Flower horn to fit the small elbow but it's not an easy horn to find. It would be much easier to find a small black & brass Victor horn. Are you having your elbow repaired?

I will have the elbow repaired eventually, but looking for a replacement now. I know a pedal horn would be harder to locate and would settle for a black/brass horn if someone has one available. Thanks...John
