Attention harmonica collectors! I will be putting my whole collection of vintage (mostly Hohner) Harmonicas and related ephemera on eBay this week (I will skip Friday and Saturday night). Please stay posted! I will be putting 5 items on per day over the next several days. All are interesting and some I’m sure are quite rare! There will be around 35 quality items listed in the next few days.
I am not a harmonica player and there fore in my collecting did not get into the playability of an 75-100 year old harmonica. Most as you know have bad reeds here and there and tarnish etc. that excludes most from any serious playability. These are mostly collector or historical display pieces. Of the few modern harmonicas I have for sale I will address their playability.
I will do combined shipping and hope some eBayer will win several of my items. It is okay and encouraged for bidders to wait until ALL my harmonica items have sold to get one shipping quote for all items won. I’m sure not many groupings of old harps come up that much on eBay these days. I have had these on display in my antiques ship for many years, but want to sell them now to send them to know homes all over the country! I am selling to help pay for a couple of banjos I bought not long ago.
All items will start off at $1 with no reserve! This is a real auction! Email any questions!
ITEM #5
This auction is for a Hohner Hohnerphone Harmonica Holder. This is one of the oldest types I have seen (I'll have two other varaiations up soon as well) You place an older style Hohner harmonica (Hohner concert type) in the horn and it serves to amplifiy it and you can do wah effects with your hand by moving it back and forth over the end of the bell of the Hohnerphone. A neat contraption and an early one. This one has been well used and is a little beat but still cool and hey it starts at $1!!!!
Shipping will be 5.00 for this item (insurance may be extra on expensive items).
Bidders with little or no feedback please email before you bid.
