| A very early double horn, pre 1918
The horn seems to have many parts that were also used by Kruspe uses. Comes from the Vogtland which is where Markneukirchen is situated.
Inscribed:
Emil Schädlich / Hofinstrumentenmacher /
Grünbach i/V.
I assume V. is Vogtland, lower Saxony which includes Markneukirchen, which is of course 20 km across the border from Graslitz in Bohemia.
