  • Original Item: Only One Available. This Vintage WWI (1916) siren works perfectly and is an EXTREMELY LOUD noisemaker! It features a wooden crank handle in very good condition.


    Beginning in late 1800's, the Sparks-Withington Co. officially incorporated in 1916 during which time they had a very brief period of military production during World War 1. During that same period the company adopted the trade name "Sparton", thus the data plate is marked "Sparton U.S.H."


    We all remember the old Hollywood Movies showing pre-WW1 Automobiles that used the most awful horns that grated everyone's ears. Well this is it!. Even the film studios in Hollywood used these to indicate some disaster or other. Fortunately someone invented the post WW1 "hooter" and these dreadful devices were gratefully retired.


    Data plate nicely marked:


    SPARTON U.S.H.
    MADE FOR
    CHEMICAL WARFARE SERVICE

    U.S. ARMY
    THE SPARKS-WITHINGTON CO.
    JACKSON, MICH. Serial LCC2085


    Authentic, well marked and still working, the Zeppelins are coming! Makes a perfect and unique addition to any Great War collection.
