Clarke’s Tin whistle special edition to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth in 1816 of Robert Clarke, inventor of the Tin Whistle. Available in a special presentation box and in the key of either C or D. Made in England.
The first Clarke Tinwhistle was invented in 1843 in a tiny village, Coney Weston, near Bury St. Edmunds, in England. He set up his factory in a shed and soon became a successful manufacturer. He did not trust banks so kept his considerable fortune in golden sovereigns in a bucket in his cellar. He became a very wealthy man and carried his gold coins in a gladstone bag, all from making the instrument that everyone wanted to play.
