I think I got the real story, kid wanted to learn how to play an instrument. Pops buys him an instrument, kid plays instrument 24/7. Pops gets annoyed from the noise and steals the horn in the middle of the night. Drives out to the woods and chucks it as far as he can.

If it says "made in India" it can't be super old...but, that said, its one of the damned coolest things I've ever seen dug.
