Vintage bicycle horn

[Toadman]

Picked this old horn up recently in fairly good shape I don't think it works , but here's my problem I don't see a button or switch anywhere on this , so not sure how it works , clearly takes a battery , I have a similar one that has a button on top. Any experts out there that can enlighten me??Its kinda cool so I would like to see if I can get it working!! Thanks for your input

i have seen horns like that, that have had a button connected with a wire. i guess so you could mount the button on the bars and the horn somewhere else. is there a hole where a wire may have come out?

yeah I think you are right , don't think,I have the skills to rewire this,
might just be a nice ornament

Electrically, these are as simple as a flashlight--just two contacts. I'm certain that it once had a remote button with wires that exited through a hole on the bottom. The screw on the back of the buzzer housing permits one to make adjustments to the tone.
