Celluloid Ear Trumpet by Eschmann Bros & Walsh

 
An unusual and attractive telescopic celluloid hearing trumpet from the early 20th century. This trumpet is based on the circular receiver design pioneered by Hawskley. The circular pan is partially covered forming a hollow convex receptor. The ivorine ear piece is detachable and has a nice tight thread. The aid would be hung around the neck with a cord passing through the loop on the back. Both sides of the pan have a fetching 'Art Deco' design. Extended length 340 mm Retracted 210 mm x 130 mm wide. A very collectable aid in excellent condition
