Re: [Harp-L] Re:Identify this harp? Blue Danube

I'm skeptical of the eBay seller's claim. This doesn't look like a Hohner product. It looks like some Chinese harps I've seen. Perhaps the original poster could verify whether the harmonica he saw bore any Hohner markings. It's unlike Hohner to market a harmonica and to omit the Hohner name from the harmonica itself.

According to this link I found on ebay, it's  a Hohner product.
http://cgi.ebay.com/Hohner-Harmonica--The-Original-Blue-Danube-with-case_W0QQitemZ200434933137QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20100202?IMSfp=TL100202203003r11175

I think, perhaps, the key here is that the words "The Original" appear to actually be an integral part of the name.
Just a guess.
