    This is a novelty whistle that looks like it needs to have its sides finished, when you press your fingers to each side of the ‘body’ it then makes the whistle actually whistle when you blow.
    I have established the whistle was made in 1881 in Birmingham but I cant seem to find the silver maker M&M and I cant really make out the other symbols on the reverse

      Finally found out what the stamp on the reverse was its a Design Registration Mark or Kite Mark used between the years – 1842 to 1883.

      M&M: A possibility might be James Woodward and Wilfred B Mole trading as Manton & Mole from Warstone Street Birmingham in the late 19th century.
