You're very unlikely to find an original as they are paper and have deteriorated and/or fallen apart from use. You can find a sort of template for making your own if you scroll down this page almost to the end:

Curt Angstman makes a great reproduction of the paper Poly horn. It was a labor of love on his part as I believe he was selling them for less than it cost him to make them. Unfortunately his account was deactivated by the forum administrator last year and he can no longer be reached through the forum.

If anyone needs a Polly Portable Horn, contact me and I will get the info to Curt. His horns are spot on. The price is reasonable for all the hard work he puts into these.

Im awaiting mine right now for my Polly! Cant wait. He is currently making one for me! My original is in excellent condition and would like to keep it that way!
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
