Good eye Bob. You don't see these show up very often. It looks like Brice Paris standing in front of it.

Thanks for the photos, Rich. It's looks like it was a great success.

Yes, I would like to know too, I wish I could have been there, but it's just not practical for me at this time.
It was $700. It had a rather large patch on it (about 6" x 4"). Was considering it nonetheless.

Thanks, when I was a kid there was this teak machine with this beveled glass cabinet with this spectacular brass horn in an antique shop _ never seen anything like it.
The horn was pretty big, not like those repro's from India.
It was probably a repro itself, but I do remember it being well made _ I repaired the reproducer for him.

I always wanted one with a big brass horn, even a reproduction.
