The beaufort whistle gets little accolades.
Why is that ?? Just too conical ?? Or plain Jane ?? Can be I suppose.
Or maybe we just haven't seen enough of them.
It has been said that when the Metropolitan was being promoted that beauforts were accepted as trade ins. Not all fell for it, like the Liverpool forces for example. But apparently many did. So then they are a bit scarce.
Well, except Liverpool understandably so.
However, not every beaufort is generic now are they ??
Just add a decorative knop and a whole new image develops — around who used those knops??
Add to that a creative cast mouthpiece or even one that unscrewed for cleaning and WOW !!! Now you have a vintage amazing whistle !!!
Perhaps made of pure nickle silver too ??? And those LARGE beauforts really are outstanding don't you think ?? Haven't seen many ????.
Could this have anything to do with the belated SPOTLIGHT ?? Hmmmm…..
