Sousaphone. Literally; pre 1927.

"Before about 1927, Conn's specific model designation was not stamped
anywhere on its individual horns. However, on some models the model name (such as
"Wonder", or "New Proportion", or "Wonderphone") was incorporated into the bell
engraving on each horn"

I haven't seen the "Rebuilt" engraving before, though.
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?
