Re: Searchlight Horn Value
I agree- the condition is not good but the shape is interesting- worth at least cleaning up if it is really cheap.

Re: Tulip Horn Value
Thanks everyone for all of the opinions.
George,
You are absolutely right.
I have that book and should have looked in it first before posting.
I am tempted to pick it up for $50 and try to clean and wax the inside.
Harvey, I lack discipline!

Re: Tulip Horn Value
Well, I got the wrong horn, AND the wrong manufacturer...
This is from the July 1907 Talking Machine World...
I don't know what that horn is, but I still like it!
Sorry it took so long for me to check the information. We were out celebrating our anniversary. Here's what we were doing 38 years ago today...

George,
Congratulations on a wonderful milestone!
Great wedding picture.
You look just a little bit like John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever.

John was born a day before me, so he's kind of a broken-down old guy.

Re: Tulip Horn Value
Great photo, George! I got married exactly 13 days before you. I looked like much more of an idiot in my wedding photos. 
Congrats on a big milestone. 38 years is a long time, as I can vouch. Would that all marriages were so strong. Nice to have you in this exclusive club.

Re: Tulip Horn Value
So George has a big smile on his face. Is it because he just got married or because he scored a $50 Berliner the day before and he just can wait to get home to see it..???.... . Congrats on your big milestone George.
We are at 25.
BTW, I still think the horn is a variant by that company. I assume they offered more than one style..... If not, still a very uncommon form.

Re: Tulip Horn Value
Come on Rene...
You have to post a wedding day picture too!
Did you wear the same style bell-bottoms as George?
Maybe we can start a long-running thread of wedding day photos.
I am only at 23 years of marriage , so I guess a newbie compared to you and George.

August 7th will be 44 years for me and as far as I can remember, I'm only 45...
