Here I have J.Hudson whistles from 1899-1901, 1903-1905, 1907, 1908, 1911-1918. Most of these are military officers whistles. The 1908 is a cavalry officers whistle with a finger ring which was held through a glove. Up to 1916 they were made of nickle/silver but in 1917 and 1918 they were made of steel and brass and even copper and plated with a black colour maybe so it was harder to be seen at night or to stop reflecting light.
