I ask this because I have One (1) Creitz 'football' airfilter unit, and 
it is for the standard size WCFB car airhorn.
I was led to believe that this was manufactured in the early 60's and 
that it was pretty rare, like maybe 30 sets were made. (YES I know they 
are Aftermarket items)

Several years ago I stumbled across a swap meet vendor that had a small 
box full of these: But, they were for the the large airhorn carbs, and 
the casting of the bottom plate was not of the same design quality as 
the piece I have, So I suspected that the vendors pieces were knockoffs 
and made clandestinely.

(But the Way, I am Still seeking a second unit, I can supply pictures if 
anyone still wanders swap meets and wants to keep an eye out for such 
critters)
