| seller note | Eschmann collapsible ear trumpet, marked 1202 OL 370, 30cm long fully extended. |
| comment | This is a common NHS item but the marking is incorrect. I am awaiting comment from Eschmann as to what the date code means. Meanwhile I have surmised it is a prototype. The outer tube reinforcement is missing and the ribbon loop. That explains the strange mark. What a find !! |
