I don't recall ever seeing one on eBay but I did find a Conn Eb three valve 'raincatcher' at an antiques fair down here in West Palm Beach, Florida. The horn was built in 1927 and is in very good condition for its age. The bell is completely free of dents but the 'collar' where the bell meets the body is slightly out of round making a tight fit. There is about 10 pounds of black tarnish covering the horn. The horn is tuned to the higher pitch standard. I am having a blast cleaning up the horn which should look stunning when I am finished. I will post a picture to the board when I am finished.
