WEIGHT OF HORN:            54 1/2 lbs

Presented is an item of seagoing gear, made by the Clark Cooper Company of Palmyra, NJ. It is an air powered ship's signaling device and also has been installed in light houses as a foghorn. Now it is available as an ideal addition to a serious collection of unusual marine memorabilia or for use on a ship, boat or truck. Think about celebrating New Year's with the sound of a BIG SHIP'S HORN.

The sound is said to be dramatic at 165 HZ and more decibels than other large horns due to the large throat and nozzle area giving it the the characteristics of a vessel of large size. We have read that the tone can be adjusted by adjusting the rear cover plate and increasing the air pressure. We have not tested it, but all the parts are included so it should work when hooked to an air supply of sufficient pressure.

The entire horn and mounting stand is made of bronze so that the 54 1/2  pound weight makes it quite heavy. The horn extends 18 3/4 inches from 8 3/4 inch mouth to the end, and on the stand it measures 24 1/2 inches high.

A super horn for use aboard ship, at home or in a collection!

Back plate has maker's name and Type 8

Bronze stand with wood base

MARKINGS: The back plate is embossed Clark Cooper Palmyra, NJ as is the side of the trumpet.
