If you are into neat old medical equipment, here's a fun piece, an Antique Hearing Aide. I thought it was tin, but a magnet DOES NOT stick to it, so must be painted steel, definitely painted black. I've tried some polish for brass, copper, etc on the end of the spout,so more shiny now than in the photo, but was trying to decipher the metal. Looks like it has brass in the seams and on the edge of the spout, but I don't think it is brass overall and will not go scraping paint off to find out. The spout stands 2 5/8" tall and the body is 1 7/8" tall and is 1 5/8" across the base. Any questions please email 24 hrs before close of auction.
