ear trumpet collections - from around the world
the sort here is based on quantity of acoustic / mechanical aids - my primary interest
please note
that the quantity shown is best data available to me - also it is only a general guide to the scale of and what one might find in any particular collection, clearly there is little merit in quantity alone, provenance and quality are the better measures
museums etc. with just one or two trumpets often have large medical collections and may be the only local opportunity for some people to view a real trumpet
