Nothing special but....

[SteveMN]

after finding numerous harmonica reeds I finally found another part of a harmonica. I didn't really know what I had when I found it but when I got home I started searching some of the text that turned out to be German. It was made by the M. Hohner Company between 1896 and 1907. I love finding relics like that and doing the research to figure out what they were.

Here is what it would look like on the harmonica:

looks pretty special to me! Anything that old is pretty cool in my book!

Cool find, Steve! I've found a few harmonica pieces, but nothing like that one. It?s very nice.

Yeah Steve, that's a great relic!!

You have one up on a lot of us, including me. Dug a lot of reeds but no cover yet. Very nice find - love the history behind these things, Steve in so az

 

[SteveMN]

Thanks guys. I guess I didn't know it was that uncommon to find pieces other than the reeds. I just wish it was in better condition.

Your right,
I've got reeds but never a top (bottom) piece like that.

hmmmm... I wonder what's happened to all the rest of the parts?
Maybe they are with the missing socks of mine.

Nice Steve

Jeff

I like finding stuff like that too.

I have found a lot of old stuff but never one of those.
