Audiscope Regular Ear Trumpet (Ear Horn) c.1925. The Audiscope (Regular) was manufactured by the American Earphone Co. Inc. of New York, NY around 1925, It is a two-section telescoping ear trumpet made of hard rubber. The bell is cut at an angle giving it a slightly-scooped appearance. The purpose of the scoop according to one catalogue is so that conversations may be carried on from the side and more convenient to use. Rear view of the extended Audiscope showing its flattened back side. This was designed to be carried easier. The name and manufacturer is engraved on the back of the piece(flat side). 11-5/8inch when extended out. 7 inches when collapsed
