Conn Snorklephone !

[David Richoux]

I was poking around in GoogleBooks and found this picture of a 1959-ish experimental horn:

A curled up Contra-Alphorn? The bell looks very strange in the picture - maybe bad airbrushing.

anyway, there is a lot of interesting stuff from the past to search out - I have not even tried "tuba" as a search.

Here is the full article.

You have to have a Google Account to see Google Books, I guess. It is free to sign up (at least it was when I did it. YMMV. )

Let me know if this is not the case - the Google website is not too specific about this.

Try this:

and if that does not work, put snorklephone in the Googlebooks search box - the picture is on page 118.

Great stuff. I read the WHOLE magazine! Thanks.
