DescriptionCopper (body); brass (ferrules and garland); single loop; brass mouthpiece chained to instrument.
Although even smaller than NMM 7045, this toy bugle observes the details of the natural bugle more closely in having a removable mouthpiece attached by a chain, ferrules and a real garland. Toy instruments of this kind were produced for example, by the Deutsche Signal-Instrumentenfabrik Max B. Martin in Markneukirchen, Saxony.
