Williamsport, 1898. A fine playing instrument in need of cleaning but otherwise excellent, including valves. Has been used in recordings of later 1800s brass band music. Plating is good except where hands (especially left) once held it. Needs cleaning! This instrument has two flaws: the small pipe on the middle valve has a dent; and there is a silver patch on the lead pipe to the third valve. Neither affects playing in the slightest. Both are easily corrected for cosmetic purposes. Comes with original leather case which must be resewn but is intact.  Place a Bid!
