seller note Antique C.1850 Rare Model Hearing Trumpet / Aid by John Weiss, London. English.
comment I only have an auricle and a banjo by Weiss, so a must have item. Bit expensive.
Fell on my feet again - this is a very unusual London Dome.
The eartube inside the dome is much longer and has an extra 'loop'.
