Posted: Tue Nov 12, 2024 6:40 pm
Original heavy solid brass G. Piel Company Long Horn. This is a beautiful all-brass hand operated horn. It is in great condition, no major dents or cracks, just a few small tiny dings and nicks here and there. Weighs 6 lbs, 8.5 length, 6 inch diameter bell. It lets out a loud “AAAWHOOO!” when the plunger is pushed. The internals are very clean, lubed, and in wonderful condition, and operate as designed. It has a nice polish, with just enough age and patina evident. Will polish like glass if desired. Very rare heavy brass horn. Very expensive horn for its time. At $18.00 in 1913, that’s about $537 in todays money. 400 includes shipping.
