Superb turned horn whistle. Wood mouthpiece held in place with a pair of round headed steel tacks. Outstanding old untouched surface. According to Neumann and Kravic’s, Collectors Illustrated Encyclopedia of the American Revolution, “Whistles were apparently a common means of signaling and giving commands” A similarly turned example is pictured on page 272 (image “9”). Whistles of this period are rarely found. Still sounds great.
