Weird Brass Piece

[rayscott]

Help. I have no clue. Found in an old fort ash dump. Looks like plated brass. The tubes are hollow. Maybe a part of a brass musical instrument?

In what country? It looks part of a hookah.

Maryland - the dump dates from the 30s. Good thought about the hookah. The extensions have raised rims that flexible hoses could slide onto.

Perhaps it is part of an antique Stethescope... what a doctor used for listening to your heartbeat, or did waaay back when I was a youngster.
