I was told it was referred to as "town and country horns". The twin air horns certainly made there presence known more than the beep of the "town horn"

I remember an old Citroen ID20 I briefly owned having similar town and country horns. You can't beat the real thing though - this Klaxon Combination horn from the 1930's. An electric motor at the end to drive the awoogah striker and more conventional vibrator driver sandwiched between, both operating on a common sound plate.
