This was my grandfather's tug boat or ship whistle. They don't seem to be that valuable, but I can't seem to find info.

Yours looks like a bullet style that I saw while growing up. What is the tip made of?

Here's a nice whistle museum - if you can't find it - at least inquire here.

KC for some reason the sight didn't come up. Could you please post it one more time.

great site!

You're welcome. I find the site very interesting and I am not a die-hard whistle person.

Didn't know there were so many kinds till I started searching years back. This is one of the best to show many examples.
