In England at that time they were marketed as "Echo Super Vampers" and cost
5/-
That is five Shillings in the "old" money. (25P) Those were the days... I'm
a better harp player now though!
:-)
On the other hand, back then, they were about the ONLY harp you could get in
all 12 keys. We have a much better choice now!

Best wishes,
