Good for pieces for small repairs. The only one that has a chance would be letter b. Steve

Re: (4) wood Victor horns on Facebook,,, need alot of TLC
I wonder if perhaps it would be possible to sacrifice ,say letter D, to repair both C and A. Obviously would take someone extremely skilled in woodworking, but maybe possible.

I have known the seller for a long, long time. He fades in and out of the hobby. He would probably be willing to bargain, but yeah, I think these are mostly good for parts or kindling.

Fair condition? I don't think so.

I am still wondering how the three spear point horns came to be in such a sorry state. The damage does not look accidental.

Re: (4) wood Victor horns on Facebook,,, need alot of TLC
If you could buy them all for $400, it would be worth taking a chance. I think they are all repairable, but if you have to send them out to somebody to do it, it would probably be too expensive. I'm sure Don Gfell could repair them, but doing it yourself would be rewarding... and I believe, possible... They would have to be pieced back together using quarter sawn oak veneer and patiently cutting, fitting and gluing parts...

Cut two of them down and make bootleg Cygnet bells out of them.
