Thanks, Steve. Your research is better than mine. I thought I could see the hinge line for a rotary valve horn, but couldn't really see the rotary valves.

My late wife was the horn player in the family. My experience was strictly woodwinds.

It looks like a Huttl model from the 1920s-1930s (German), possibly with an Eb 
crook in place of the F tuning slide.  Definitely a rotary valve model.  While 
the one in the photo is a double horn, the only reference photo I could find is 
of a single-horn model.  You can see the similarities.
