    this item looks like a small pair of binoculars but one side makes the sound of a harmonica when blown in. Other side does nothing but could be blocked. It is made off metal. What might this be? This item was found in with some violin parts.

      The sound, "like a harmonica" (i.e. a metal reed), it is probably the key of "A" - the pitch you tune the first string of a violin to. In other words, its a violinist's novelty pitch pipe. Very cool!
