Default Sparton Horn Repair

Does anyone know of a source for rebuilding a '35 Sparton horn? Tuning no longer works. The best I can get is a pathetic bleat from one and nothing except a click from the other.

Should you find someone, post it here as I just had one of mine go out. If I knew a little more about them, I would try and adjust it myself. Fools rush in where angles fear to tread.
