This is a photo of a beautiful commemorative trumpet presented to John Maurice Berger by the Crisfield Fire Department in 1928. This valuable trumpet is in a private collection outside the family. The trumpet sat for years in a pawn shop on Belair Road in Baltimore until it was bought and auctioned to a private collector. These trumpets were used in parades, carried with the wide end up and flowers were placed in the opening. The rope seen here is original and it still has its original cover.
