It's not what it seems: strange object!

No, it's not used to top up the oil on your vintage racing 1928 4.5 Bentley.
A couple of people here will know straight away.

Hi Tony, small help needed... Is music related? To me looks like an old device for cleaning inside some music instruments! 
Posted on: 27 April 2015 by Tony2011
Nope, not music. I doubt you would be even singing after one is used to its purpose...
Posted on: 27 April 2015 by Tony2011
Bong?
You would definitely be singing George. But ... I'm afraid it's not!

I thought the post ill-advised so deleted, but will not deny that it existed briefly!

Not to worry, George. Stay away from any bong. You're the last person on earth who should ever get anywhere near those things or some of its more exotic "siblings". You're mad enough, in a nice way!

Dear Tony,
I have two drugs: Music and beer!
I am old enough to have given up further experimentation!

Not automotive or decorating related I'm afraid.

No.
Clue:It was used in a certain profession in the early part of last century.

No, but that's a great guess and in the right direction!

Something to do with autopsies or embalming?
Posted on: 27 April 2015 by Tony2011
oh, not that creepy but also very good guess.

Bummer! Again.
Come on, flush it out.
