Leftovers Holiday noisemakers valued as collectibles
New Year leftovers from noisemakers, horns, whistles, and novelties attract collectors. Tin and wooden horns in varied shapes, paper coned horns, and loud whistles such as the Develine and siren shriekers are described with prices and dates. Postcards with New Year motifs and Ellen H. Clapsaddle designs fetch modest sums. Scotland’s Burning of the Clavie is noted as a curious custom with risky moonlit procession.
