By the end of the brass era the bulb horn was gone and replaced with an
electric horn. Cars with gas lights and no batteries used the bulb horn.
Late teens was about th end of them. They sound like a whoopee cushion
that has been stomped on...

It looks identical to a horn from an automobile musical horn made by
Sparton. Mine is called a Chime Bugle with 14, 11 and 8 inch horns. It
has a 6 volt motor driven air pump to play a tune. I have seen them
with two horns or trumpets also. Following is the Item number of one

Thanks Aaron,
That's exactly what it is. I figured it was not a phono horn.

Here is a violin horn, which is an interesting concoction of musical instrument
and phonograph technology. The StrohViol used a large diaphragm to reproduce
the sound which was amplified by a horn.I have always wanted one...

If you watch Boardwalk Empire closely, you will see Vince Giordano playing

Phono listers:
My wife found a "purple" Edison ( I assume) cylinder as she has been told to
buy them when she finds them as they are a little mor sought after than "run
of the mill blue ones".
When we looked at it, it did not start with "29**", it had the number of
"3790" title: everybody
I've seen BA cylinders that have a purplish hue to them, but not like the Royal
Purple series. I wonder if it is a BA that is a bit bleached out or something?
Can you post a pic?
