Ive just bought one of these.
Think it dates to the 30's.
It has four harps sort of back to back on a central spindle, with a little knob at each end so you can twirl the thing around and play each harp.
Each harp is a tremelo model similar to an Echo I suppose.
In A, D, G and C.
I once had a four in one on one flat piece of wood by Hohner in a a nice presentation box. I sold that to a guy in the states and have regretted it ever since, which is why I am so please to get this one now.
Anyone have any knowledge of them?
Seen anyone playing them before?
I think they were used by people like Borah Minevitch/The Harmonica Rascals back in the 30's.
You know?...variety acts with harps.
