Harmonica!

[MisterHelix]

Down in the hollow today, I got an interesting signal from under this rock. Underneath was this harmonica part!

I took a pic before flipping the rocks.

Nearby was another half horseshoe, and upmountain a ways I found a few shotgun stamps and another piece of 30-30 brass, and a rectangular nail.

Neat harmonica. Looks like the harmonica part of the harmonophone. Cool.

(Edit) It sure does look similar. . (Internet photo) but I can see crimps or rivets on the ends of the one I found, so I think it’s more likely a regular harmonica?

I’ll go back and search some more for (possible) the other parts.

Some neat finds.

Very cool find. You have to wonder how it ended up under the rocks? Any idea on the age?

I found this lithograph advert on the eBay. I think the harmonica illustrated is the model I found.

Yes, I believe you are right. I haven’t seen that brand before. Very cool. I’ve played harmonicas since 1968. I always enjoy various pieces and history. 👍🏼
