According to Paul Baker, there were 94 horns made in that run so they aren't particularly rare. As Rene has stated here on many occasions it isn't that they are rare but so rarely trade hands that keeps the value high. There have been several other runs of reproduction glass horns made in France and one in England that I know of. I don't know how many horns were made in these runs. The "crystal" (clear, straight glass horns) are particularly attractive. The European horns are a bit harder to find. I have only seen one on these on eBay and none offered for sale otherwise. If you are interested in finding out more about original and reproduction glass horns I suggest you subscribe to CAPS (the California version) and begin receiving the OUTSTANDING "Soundbox" magazine - I hear rumors there may be a related article soon.
