Description
(Original Caption) This long flute was picked up at the Battle of Waterloo and taken to Melbourne, Australia, where it was an heirloom in a family there for many, many years. When the present owner heard Burl Ives sing sea chanteys and long-forgotten folk songs, he was so touched, he decided to give the flute to the singer, along with a completely documented history of the instrument.
