John,
What's the story on this conch horn? Where did it come from? Was it commercially made as an actual aftermarket option? Are there others like it out there? I've seen a Shell-O-Phone before, but never an outside horn for a horn machine...
How about posting close up pics of the horn itself from the front and rear?

Apparently Popular Mechanics in 1919 suggested using conch shells as phonograph horns...
