      Looks like a hooka... might of been a smoking device .

      Yes I believe it is a smoking device. How old?
    4. TubeAmp TubeAmp, 11 years ago
      I would think 60-70's. Maybe kids "borrowed" it and took it to the woods to smoke it and left it. I would expect more corrosion if it was much older.

      I don't believe that solid brass will corrode. It may tarnish a bit.
