| seller note | 1900 Antique French Faux Tortoise Ear Trumpet Tube Listening Horn Hearing Aid Made of faux tortoise shell resembling celluloid with yellow celluloid ear piece. No markings. Very good preseved with a small crack at front edge. Insignificant but must be pointed. Small size in my opinion, ladies version or just in this size. Found at an estate sale in Paris not sure for its history other than it came from an estate of a world traveler and antique collector. Measures: 1.85in x 0.8in x 1.3in |
