This silver fireman's trumpet from 1852 is in the Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness show that I posted about earlier, but I thought it deserved its own little showcase.

As (almost) always, click to enlarge.

We went to SAM for First Thursday, and spent a few minutes looking at this trumpet. It's really amazing in person.
