Please identify horn if possible

My first thought was "crapohorn" but the elbow is one smooth piece. Owner says its very light
almost like pressed paper. Any ideas? Thanks!

Thar is a horn off a Guild phonograph from the 1950's. It was an approach to sell a machine with a retro look back then. Once they turn up loose, people think they are the legit original thing but are really not worth much unless you are putting together a Guild machine from the 50's

This is for a Guild combination radio/phonograph hi-fi built in the 1950's. Guild built radios and phonographs into a variety of cabinets all an interpretation of American antiques such as a wall phone, a dry sink, a roll-top desk, a lantern (radio only), a grandfather clock, and the 'Grafanola', from where that horn originated. The hi-fi speaker was built into the horn opening originally and covered with a black perforated metal grill. I have seen these horns turn up frequently over the years misidentified as real horns.

Ah ok. Thanks John and Guest! The base looks very similar to the Odeon gramophone I used
to have so I thought it may be European.
