Durable Big Round Rubes Holiday Edition [5Z7WkiVB]

The Rubes iHORN is made from a brass Rubes horn which was mounted on

Model T.  The oval shaped mounting bracket which bolted to the firewall

indicates that the horn was made between 1914 and 1915.  The Rubes horn was

connected to a bulb which was inside the cab of the Model T and was squeezed

to emit the horn noise.  As originally constructed, the opening of the horn had a

screen which kept foreign particles from entering the horn.  Rubes horns are

highly collectible and valued in the vintage automobile collector market

The Rubes iHorn is part of the industrial revolution and early Americana.  It is

historic in the manner in which it contributed to the automotive experience.
