| seller note | Antique Victorian Painted Metal Ear Trumpet - Unusual! Interesting Victorian metal ear trumpet. Made in the 19th Century in England. Not marked but guaranteed to be early and original. Some patina, a couple of dents, and wear commensurate with age and usage. Otherwise, it is in very good condition, with no cracks or restoration. It measures approximately 6½in in height. |
| comment | I have a similar one to this, slightly smaller but a different profile dome and nickle plated. The item is painted - possibly re-painted. |
