Rare 1930s or 1940s Eb Soprano Flugelhorn next to a Bb Benge Flugelhorn for comparison.

BRASS FROM THE PAST: Rare 1930s or 1940s Eb Soprano Flugelhorn.  Possibly made in France or Italy. No makers mark other than a stamp on the bell that says “LA SIRENE 2”.  I am holding the Eb soprano flugelhorn next to a Bb Benge flugelhorn for a comparison of the size. Anyone have any ideas about this horns origins?  Listen to sounds from the past. About 80 or 90 years ago more or less.  Rodgers & Hammerstein: “Edelweiss” from “The Sound Of Music”.
