B. Lily & Sons
Founded 1861 by Benjamin Lilly. Brass founders and whistle manufacturers,
Were makers of whistles with a different touch and design
they kept making whistles in the shade of large companies and made small quantities.
Unknown whistles by this maker are still found ,
I did put some of my research of their history and other models by this maker in a previous article HERE.
Here is another model made Stamped OFFICER, again a unique and different design with an oval window.
I tend to think the company made whistles up to the mid 1920's, this one was made circa early 1900's . A round whistle with conical shape or a short beaufort .
Length ; 59 mm.

Ivory & Bone Whistles, Round type. A.Strauss (under construction)
There is a lot to write on round Ivory & Bone whistles and the various groups many of these can be identified, very little has been priviously written before.
most can not be identified in general we can devide these to turned 'Professinal' whistles made by Industrial era makers and to 'hand made' carved folk art or unknown earlier makers that would include whistles from various continents and periods. Other types include scimshaw work and marine whistles. souveniers with typical area motives or stanhope peepers.

American Bird Calls Owl Hooters Dove Calls A.Strauss, underconstruction
Owl Hooters are typical None Diapragm whistles
that are of great interest sound wise weather as sound affects whistle or as means for bird lovers, hunters.
Not often seen these are usually made of metal wood or plastic.
Owl Hooters have a large chamber and a very different sound when compared to whistles .
Having a Low, wide rich sound that has more over tones and one that can be manipulated with breath and hand 'cupping' ( see trumpet mues- cup mute) a term I made for controlling the sound with a hand over the whistle.

The Whistle, Benjamin Franklin.
Here we have a whistle documented by B. Franklin , in 1713 on his way to a toy store. He wrote the story and moral in 1779. And it is an early documentation of toy whistles in the 18th century.
I wonder what the whistle looked liked, what toy whistles of early 18th century toy shops looked like. I will try to bring possible pictures, was it a clay whistle wood ? Metal ? he did not give us a clue.
Meanwhile I quote his letter and the story, every whistle tells a story and this one was told by
