Back in the seventies the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences had an
Elkington reproduction of a Renaissance silver thingie labelled 'Mukkinese
Battle Horn' (ref: the famous Goon Show film).  The label was there for
several years, one staff member enjoyed the joke with the curator,
otherwise, as far as I know, no-one else, staff or visitor, ever noticed or
complained.
