Hello all,

I found this horn somewhat recently, I was wondering what exactly it is and/or what company made it. I have a feeling it may be a Columbia horn that had its nickel plating removed, though, I saw a very similar one on ebay that resembles it exactly. Sorry for the size of the link, but here is the ebay listing.

The dimensions are about 25 by 21, same as the ebay listing. Just curious on any insight about this horn someone may have. Its a smaller size than I usually see. I have also included pictures of it on my edison home model B.
Thanks!

Just a comment...
It reminds me of the front mount busy bee horns (usually in iridescent red). I know Hawthorne and Shelby joined forces with O'Neill for the aretino and Yankee prince machines, but I don't think those horns have a place for a chain to attach.

They have quite a similar look, Dave, Very similar construction.
Thanks for the insight!
