Skate Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I dug this the other day at a site that is 80-100+ years old in terms of when it last had houses on it. It's around 6" tall and I think it's brass. It looks familiar enough that I should know what it is but I can't figure it out. Any help appreciated. It has a threaded end on the bottom and an ornamental cap on the top. Thanks Skate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn in CO Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 My guess would be part of a brass steam whistle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skate Posted January 16, 2018 Author Share Posted January 16, 2018 Thanks Glenn you may be right. I did a search after your answer and it does appear to be some sort of a steam whistle. I knew it looked familiar I just couldn't see it. Now to find out what brand and type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
