This is a rare early vintage P.S. Olt Duck Quack from the same maker as our All-In-One imitation. This is an excellent sounding Duck imitation. The trap is made of hard, vulcanized rubber. All black with "P.S. Olt Pekin.ILLS." stamped on the barrel and patent pending stamped on the stopper. The total length is 4 3/4". This Duck Quack is from a collection of traps, sound effects, and whistles formerly owned by Emil Kresse, principal percussionist and timpanist of the Philadelphia Orchestra (1901 – 1945) who passed them on to Fred D. Hinger, also a former principal percussionist and timpanist with the Philadelphia Orchestra (1948 – 1967) and Metropolitan Opera Orchestra (1967 – 1983). This is a unique opportunity to own a rare imitation with a fine provenance that will become a centerpiece of any vintage traps collection.
