Hi Melissa, The elbow is off of a radio. Music Master made wood horns for radios after they made phonograph horns. I have a Music Master mahogany horn that uses the same fitting of the Edison cygnet horn. The bell is 14" in diameter. Harvey Kravitz

Hi All, Last week we won a box of phonograph parts along with our Victor II. Most of them do not look very interesting. However, in the box was included a horn elbow. I immediately thought it was just the elbow from a radio horn but now we are wondering if it belongs to an Edison Opera. The paint appears original and is black. It fits onto the bell of our Edison cygnet horn and looks like the opera elbows we have found pictured online. It has been suggested to us that it may actually be from a school opera due to the black color. Sadly, we do not own, nor can we currently afford our own Opera so we are considering selling the elbow to allow someone else to complete an Opera. Can anyone confirm or deny what type of elbow it is? There are other items in the box that we know nothing about and would love any info. Here is a link to a video of the items. If you would like close up pics of any of them, please send me your email.
