Vintage Walberg & Auge canary imitation whistle.Made of seamless brass and nickel plated, this whistle has a cap and moveable mouthpiece. The cap is stamped with the Wlaberg & Auge logo and keeps the water in side the whistle from leaking during transporting the whistle. This is a classic, water carrying canary imitation from Wlaberg & Auge as shown in the attached pre-1920 Dixie Music House catalog. This is a fine example of a standard early 20th century trap that will make a fine and useful addition to any traps and sound effect collection.
