And as further response to Chris and Schwinn worshippers out there... here is a page from the original Arnold, Schwinn & Company (ASC) dealer book for 1938. No DIY guessing here.
It clearly shows a side shot of ASC's built-in horn button in a profile view.
Also note the reference to "knee-action spring fork" (the actual name that ASC and most others called it) and NOT the common slang of today... "springer."
C'monnn... who else shows you this stuff? Right from the source?
