1910 Brass-Era Klaxon hand push horn – very rare – in very good original condition. I have not seen a horn (other than in an old advertisement) with a bell shaped like this one. There was some mild surface rust on the outside that I neutralized and put a light coat of paint on. I also replaced the bolts and nuts on the bell. I was looking for steel nuts and bolts but the ones that I found had Phillips heads so I got all brass which were slotted like the originals. The inside mechanism was completely rust free. The diaphragm had some very minor surface rust that I took care of with steel wool and some light paint. The patent dates are March 31, 1908 – May 25, 1909 and May 3, 1910. That would make this horn a 1910 Brass-Era Klaxon Horn.
