Anyone with more details on what what you're seeing from those two pictures?

Hi North'

I wonder what the point is really? I wonder what would one bother about such a large horn.. perhaps to drive it with a flea-powered amplifier 1 watt SET amplifers ?? ... Bragging rights perhaps ??

Frantz, I'm only asking assistance on the origin of this particular bass horn, that's all. One member here is one of the very best in that task, Ray.

Cheers,
Bob

I like the beginning where he is doing the routine maintenance.

If anyone has a spare, and they want to dump-it; I have the place.
