| seller note | RARE ANTIQUE TELESCOPIC EAR TRUMPET BY REIN & SON |
| comment | This shape is missing from the collection. It seems very few of these were made based on catalogue history and even fewer survive. The cartouche is painted over and I have iincluded a cleaned up version from another piece. The beat up trumpet has had a fair bit of soldering. |
