Made in approximately 1940, this is a World War 2 German hand-crank siren. It has a sound damper and the chopper, stator and handle are made of Bakelite. It constructed from a wonderful red bakelite and functions by emitting a classic air raid siren screech when cranked. The reverse is maker marked, the folding bakelite handle is marked Ziehen (Pull).
The bakelite parts are of the most desirable red/brown variety. This is a very rare hard to find piece offered. The chain does pull and it makes a loud noise.
The horn is all intact and is a piece of history. This item is in the category "Collectibles\Militaria\WW II (1939-45)\Original Period Items\Germany\Personal, Field Gear". The seller is "beachdays4me" and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped to United States.
