Fireman Speaking Trumpet

NOTICE

********NOW OPERATING FROM OUR NEW HEADQUARTERS ********



Now fully operational from the beautiful Pacific North West, we encourage all to keep a close eye as we unpack posted offerings and continue what will be an ongoing effort of unpacking the collection while taking stock with an eye toward thinning out our accumulation of treasures. After years of seeking out and acquiring all manner of quality antique Americana from simple but seldom surviving items of special interest to historically important treasures, Janet and I look forward to offering the fruits of our years of seeking out such to new and appreciative homes.

Since the beginning of organized firefighting, it became obvious that command communication was needed to assist those fighting fires, salvaging goods and preventing the extension of fires. As such the speaking trumpet was in use for many years as a communication tool and after becoming obsolete, its image is still used as a universal identifier of firefighting with rarely existing original trumpets considered as key firefighting collectable. This example measures 16 3/4 inches in length, is 6 ¼ inches across the mouth and sports a bold hook & ladder fire department logo. Remaining in excellent original condition, nicely burnished with good internal evidence of age and later 1800s, early 1900s manufacturing methods, this speaking trumpet will show well in any firefighting grouping. Buy with confidence! We are pleased to offer a no questions asked three day inspection with return as purchased on direct sales! Just send us a courtesy e-mail to let us know your item will be returned per these provisions and your purchase price will be refunded accordingly. Thanks for visiting Gunsight Antiques!
