16 Vocal Horn Addison-Lucas 1865 F Instrument
(210 Regent St. W., London) Advertised as a Ballad horn, but the fact that it is probably an F instrument and uses a "French" horn mouthpiece and has a smaller 6.5" bell, these attributes place it in the Vocal horn camp. Vocal horns are essentially tenor horns pitched in F that use a "French" horn mouthpiece.

78 Sousaphone Conn 40K 174151 1920 BBb Instrument
It has a 24" bell, an 7 3/8" bell collar interior diameter, and a .734 bore. What Conn said in 1926: The New Wonder Model Sousaphone Grand Basses are the largest members of the Sousaphone family. Built in BBb, with either three or four valves, they add a deep and sonorous voice to any ensemble in which they may be used. The splendid impression made by these instruments in point of appearance is a matter of remark everywhere. Due to the hydraulic expansion process of manufacture, these instruments are perfectly proportioned, and accurate intonation is therefore invariably obtained. The inside of the tubing is smooth as glass, having been "ironed out" by pressure of 10,000 pounds or more, and as a result the softest pianissimo passages, encountering little resistance, can be played with great effect. This is proof of the easy blowing quality of the Conn Sousaphone Grand Bass. Even better, what Sousa said: In an interview with John Philip Sousa the Christian Science Monitor of May 30, 1922 quoted him as follows: "...the Sousaphone received its name through a suggestion made by me to J.W. Pepper, the instrument manufacturer of Philadelphia, full 30 odd years ago.. . . It was immediately taken up by other instrument makers, and is today manufactured in its greatest degree of perfection by the C.G. Conn Company..." This instrument manufactured in 1920, and was the flagship of Conns sousaphone line of instruments, and is undoubtedly the instrument to which Sousa was referring.
79 Sousaphone Conn 38K 1941 BBb Instrument
80 Mellophone Cavalier Instrument
Engraved:Cavalier- Elkhart, Indiana, USA. GSMonks: As you can tell by the angular sections that make up the bell, this was a cheaply made hybrid mellophone instrument that would probably be classed as a tenor cor, as it makes use of trumpet/cornet valves, braces, lead-pipe, water key(s) and cylindrical tubing. This does not mean that this instrument would have performed poorly. Even when cutting corners, Conn was not known for sacrificing quality of sound or performance. RE: the term "tenor cor": A few years ago Niles Eldredge remarked to me in an e-mail (and keep in mind, at the time he also told me that this was pure speculation on his part) that the term "tenor cor" may have originated with someone like Hermann Koenig. When he asked Antoine Courtois to build his first Koenig horn, what he may have been after was some form of "tenor cornet". The thing to remember here is that, despite the modern perception of these instruments, Hermann Koenig was a virtuoso cornettist, and his desire for a particular type of instrument to compliment this range is not a subject to be taken lightly. He most certainly would not have been the least bit interested in an amateurs toy. Remember, too, that the "French" horn, or waldhorn as it is more properly called, though patented in valved version in 1818, still lingered on in "natural" valveless form, and was not quite the fascile instrument we think of today. In 1855-56, when the F Koenig horn came along, it seems logical that it would have been the choice of virtuosos of the day who typically "doubled in brass", as the saying goes, and whom likely would have prefered the Koenig horn as a second instrument to the waldhorn.

Bell: 20in Height: 37in Displayed courtesy of Phils Rugs and Relics (http://www.rugs-n-relics.com). Now, to add a little confusion. Upon further review of the Conn Loyalist, it appears that the 20J was a three valved horn, but the 24J and the 25J were 4 valvers. However, their dates of manufacture were suppose to start in 1924. Only the serial number of the following horn places it at 1919. Update: Apparently, the model# for the New Wonder Eb tuba was 20J for Front action, and 18J for the top action. A catalog refers to it as "New Invention Giant or Contra Eb Basses" 3 valves $145, 4 Valves $157!

91 French Horn Boston Double 24831 1920 F/Bb LP Instrument
Full Double Manufactory was formed in 1869 by some notable early American makers. In about 1902 the enterprise moved, and changed the name to the Boston Musical Instrument Company. The firm was purchased by Cundy Bettony in 1914, and continued operation until at least 1928. This is a full double horn, in F and Bb, nickel plated brass, in an early configuration. This horn was built in the form of a "Schmidt-wrap", which normally employs a piston valve for the switch between F and Bb. This horn uses a double depth rotary valve in the same position, however.

95 Cornet Boosey c1874 Eb High Instrument
The company was established by Thomas Boosey in 1816. In 1934 the Hawkes & Son firm merged with them to form the now well-known Boosey & Hawkes. The instrument shown has Distin markings as well as Boosey, indicating the circa 1874 name change from Distin & Co to Boosey & Son. The crook shown was used to change it from a soprano cornet to a so-called vocal cornet in C. Each valve slide is etched with a line to where it should be pulled out for use in C.
96 Ballad Horn Boosey-Hawkes Instrument
This was one of a small number of deluxe horns, made by Boosey & Co., that starting in 1874 languished in stock for a good long while. This is a C instrument with Bb crook that is refered to as a bass Ballad horn, although the pitch of this instrument with the Bb crook is the same as tenor trombone/baritone/euphonium. The Ballad horn patent and design had been sold by Henry Distin to Boosey & Co. previously in 1868. By the time this horn was made, Boosey had abandoned its attempts to market these horns as a unified family of C instruments in the soprano, alto, tenor and bass registers, leaving only the "bass" version in C that necessarily came with a Bb crook, as this horn would inevitably have seen use in the same role as the tenor trombone/baritone/euphonium. As you can tell by the small bell, this was a flugle instrument. Later versions of Ballad horns by a variety of manufacturers would hit upon this design as well as others that more resembled the hybrids such as Vocal horns and mellophones.

Kevin67: I own an identical horn. Ser#44123. It has a pat. date of 1910 on the high/low pitch change over. I date it at 1913 (c.1915) Kenton: I have a York Eb tuba that has a change over too. It is a slide that can either be just a loop outside of the horns air passageway, or it can go into the tuning slide outer tube and be incorporated into the passageway. Problem with the tuba is that it is either a bit over 440 at the lowest high pitch setting, or a but under 400 on the low pitch setting. I keep threatening to cut off some tubing (but have not done it yet.) Pryorphone: Low pitch can be as low as 435. (see that CalState site) My Conn double bell baritone (1907) was built to 435, and I remade new tuning slides for it new rather than cut the horn!

Kenton: 1925 Cleveland Instrument Company Silver Trumpet This was made before HN White / King Instruments completed take over of this small company. No White or King markings anywhere on the instrument, but it does have a serial number in the King range (not Cleveland). This information is available at hnwhite.com" And, presented a copy of the following ad: www.horn-u-copia.net/instruments/White/Cleveland-1925-ad.gif The horn in the ad does seem to match this instrument. But I have a couple of questions. The image on hnwhite.com labels this image as 1935. Now that could simply mean that they continued this design for at least 10 years. Hnwhite.com also states that White made horns for Cleveland for a couple of years to help out with backlog before buying them out in 1925. So, it could be that this was one of those early horns. But, here is the problem. The King serial number chart has 1925-1930 - serial numbers 78001-126000. It also has the Cleveland serial numbers as starting at 1 in 1925. (Cleveland did not get to 114xxx until the 60s) So, exactly where does this horn fit in? keeferman: I am glad that someone posted this picture of a Cleveland trumpet. It confirms something that I have suspected for a long time. The now famous valve section still used on every current trumpet made by Conn Selmer (King, Conn and even 90 series Benge specifically), as well as UMI before them, as well as every King 600 ever built, was actually a design of the Cleveland Co. before H N White bought them out. What I am specifically speaking to is the manner in which the first valve slide is set up on the valve casing. When viewed from the players perspective, the top of the slide comes directly out of the center of the casing, and then returns at the bottom of the casing in the more usual offset style. The King company seemed reluctant to use this set up on their instruments, and as far as I can determine, the first King trumpet to use it was the Super 20, but only on the trumpets, not the cornets. If anyone knows what advantage there is to this particular feature, I would like to know what it is.

169 Ballad Horn Salvation Army 1930 Instrument
It is a C instrument that actually plays one tone higher than the Bb baritone/euphonium/tenor trombone. Like the Boosey & Co. bass Ballad horn, this instrument has a smaller bell than the original 1855-1856 Courtois Koenig horns, but all three instruments belong to the flugle family, and are not hybrid instruments build of parts that are interchangeable with such instruemnts as the Horn, cornet, trumpet, Eb tenor horn. Note the width of the bell throat throughout, and the manner in which it resembles the bells of such instruments as saxhorns. It is this particular feature that defines what constitues a flugle instrument, along with a deep parabolic or V-cup mouthpiece.

195 Fluglehorn; Alt Miraphone Eb Instrument
horndawg: I would love to get my hands on one of these! I recently ran across a trombonist named Scott Reeves who also plays what he calls an alto flugelhorn, but in a recent email he explained that Mirafone called it an alto trumpet. He decided to call it a flugel because the horn appeared to be very, very conical to him. it is a SARV horn and he plays it with a modified trombone mpc, so it is a slightly lower register but a nice, fat, warm sound. Any ideas whether Mirafone still makes the instrument pictured here? gsmonks: Unfortunately, I do not think so. Miraphone is still making their bass trumpet, which is a SARV. It is hard to tell what they are making in the flugle department because I can not find all their horns on an English-translated site. Miraphone does not call their flugles flugles on their site. They sell various types of what they call Wing Horns (which is really what the term "flugel" means). It could be that you could find it somewhere in there, if they still make it. Here is their site: http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.miraphone.de/&pre... thetubameister: try www.miraphone.de and click the british flag on the top of the page
196 Mellophone Miraphone Instrument
gsmonks: Miraphone right-handed rotary valve althorn, in the typical althorn key of Eb. Though never very common in mellophones, their close cousins, the althorns, have traditionally been manufactured using rotary valves. Unlike the mellophones, which are hybrid instruments consisting of a mixture of conical and cylindrical tubing, this horn is truly a conical bore flugle instrument, and is very similar to the modern Cerveny and Dotzauer althorns. VegasGeorge: I have a long standing love affair with my Mirafone F Althorn. I have owned the horn for many years, and play it often. For those of you who may not know, the Althorn is a bell left, rotary valve, German style (go figure!) alto horn. Mine has a fourth valve that lowers the pitch a Major 4th. That does two nice things: It provides alternate fingerings that tend to cure those pesky out of tune notes, and; It extends the low range of the instrument. I have three playable octaves, from written C below Middle C, to the C above Middle C. I only have to fake the low C#, but with my lips flapping like that, its just no problem! It is a fabulous horn to play. The tone is very open and sonorous. It has a wide dynamic range. You cradle the horn in your arms such that you are literally hugging the horn while you play it. It is very intimate.

233 Mellophone Distin Instrument
A departure from his Ballad horn design (itself a knockoff of the Courtois Koenig horn of 1855-1856, the patent of which was sold to Boosey & Co. in 1868), Distins instrument dubbed the Altophone was a knockoff, not of the original mellophone, which was a Kohler & Son knockoff of his own Ballad horn, but of the later instruments bearing the name "mellophone", that were hybrid instruments built from parts that were interchangeable with those used to build the Horn, cornet, trumpet, and Eb tenor horn. This particular instrument probably originally came with 4 sets of slides (instead of the 3 shown, plus valve slides) for F/Eb/D and C, plus two mouthpieces, one althorn/mellophone/Eb tenor horn size, one baritone/euphonium/trombone small shank size. Note that the mouthpiece used in this horn is of baritone/euphonium/trombone small shank size. These Distin instruments are noted for their superior quality even today, and far from being fit only for wall-hangers or window-dispay ornaments, are still useful instruments in their own right.

This version of a mellophone instrument often being refered to as a Tenor Cor, this hybrid instrument employs the use of trumpet/cornet valves, cylindrical tubing, water keys, braces and lead-pipe. The bell and bell tubing, however, were not fashioned on a Horn mandrel, as is typical with these instruments, but instead were thoughtfully redesigned so that the instrument as a whole was more integrated and unified in design, producing superior tone, intonation, resonance and response.

354 Mellophone York 1913 Instrument
three pistons for playing and two additional rotary keys for lowering the pitch, allowing this instrument to play in the keys of F/Eb/D/C. Instruments of this sort usually came with two mouthpieces, one mellophone/Eb tenor horn size for playing in F and Eb, and one baritone/euphonium/tenor trombone size for playing in D/C. It may have originally come with an extra set of valve slides. This particular version of the hybrid instruments refered to as mellophones was also often refered to as a tenor cor. The tell-tale features are: slightly smaller bell, noticeably narrower bell-throat, cornet/trumpet valve casing and bore-size. This particular form of mellophone, for whatever reason, was the perennial favourite of African-American brass and concert band musicians during the entire Ragtime era in the United States, and would have been used by such musicians as those that played in the bands of Ragtime composer and bandmaster James Reese Europe.

374 Trumpet Koeder 01875 Instrument
Mr. David Anderson contributed the following information Mr. T.M. Koeder was a music teacher in Naperville Il. for Years. He also had a little home based business attached to his home, where he would repair, and build trumpets. It was a little shop on School Street in Naperville Il. He custom built these trumpets for various clients over the years, from around 1920 to about the time of his death in the early 1970s. His son then took over the business after he retired as a teacher, and continued repairing and building custom built instruments until his death in the late 1980s. I remember as a child watching Mr. Koeder repair my fathers trumpets in his shop. It was awsume. He custom crafted the bells and tubing off a giant belt lathe, which hung from the ceiling of his shop. I used to watch him make the bells of the horns off this huge machine. Awsume. I will never forget the experience. My dad whom was a professional musician, owned one of these horns. It was custom built to his specifications. It had a sound all of its own. It was like having a Bach nowadays custom tweeked with different slides, and bells.. He did alot of work for the Naperville Municipal Band Members. Some of these horns still exsist, as we have seen here on Ebay, and the person whom owns it will get a treasure for sure. Like I said, they were all custom built horns, and very few of them are still in existance. Ellermans music shop in Naperville Il. I beleive still has the remnants of some of the replacement parts for these horns. For more info on Mr. Koeder, I suggest you contact the Naperville Il. Historic society. I am sure they will have pictures of his shop, and more info on Mr. Koeder, and his son. David Anderson Like I mentioned, my dad owned one of these horns until his death, when I then Donated it to there museum as a collectors piece.

Cornets were also being made in that form and these two instruments with the clavicor were presented as forming a complete family, although not as complete as Saxs Saxhorn-saxotromba family.

Here is an entry posted by the University of Maryland: "9. Roster of Gilmores Band, 1890. 42 members listed by last name and initial(s) with instrument played and duration of membership. Autograph document, mounted in mat. "This roster of the Gilmore Band from 1890 demonstrates the number of well-known musicians employed by Gilmore. We find here a number of players who would soon join John Philip Sousas Band, including John S. Cox, R. Noyes, E. A. Lefebre, T. F. Shannon, Herman Bellstedt, Joseph Michele Raffayola, Eldon Baker, and Herman C. Conrad. Modern readers will notice a few strange instruments including the antoniophone, an instrument similar to the French horn." http://www.lib.umd.edu/PAL/SCPA/ABA/Gilmore/9.html The nonsense about the link to the "French" horn may unfortunately be attributed to certain people who have pirated and misquoted my own material on mellophones (Koenig horns) and related instruments. The Dolmetsch Online music dictionary is one such culprit.

However, it was stamped Bohemia on the receiver, and had an anchor marking on the valves. So, at least for some of the Marceau products, the mystery may be solved as Bohland and Fuchs appear once again to be the supplier of stencils.

White, Olds, and his own name brand, which all used the underslung tuning slide design. Is it possible that Reynolds had a hand in the design of this little horn? It is an absolute clone of my recently acquired Grinnell cornet. Knowing that Grinnell was not in the business of making brass instruments, but bought stencil horns from various makers, I can reasonably presume that my little Grinnell horn was made by whoever was using the Elkhart Band Instrument Co. name at the time that my horn and the first pictured Elkhart cornet were manufactured.

Norm: s there text on the bell of your Selmer flugelhorn? I have been trying to come up with a date for mine, but have had no luck, despite e-mail correspondence with Selmer Paris. Mine has prize information on the bell..."Grands Prix/Geneve 1927 Liege 1930", and the address "4 Place Dancourt, Paris" (which Selmer occupied from around the turn of the century to 1965). Also the name of the dealer "Raubert, Montreux, Lausanne." The association with Rauber dates from 1930, but Selmer could not come up with a date as to when that relationship ended. The serial number of the horn is 508. The valve stems and casings are stamped 7,8, and 9. After a lot of Googling, I came up with the following information about a trumpet, whose bell has information similar to mine. The person dates the trumpet at around 1949-1950.

557 Mellophone Holton M601 F Instrument
HornDawg: Until recently, the only mpc I could use was a Bach 5FL flugel and it was quite nice with that but much brighter and thinner than I wanted. Recently got my hands on a Bach 3 Mellophone mpc and the difference is like night and day (except it is a much more drastic change from the horn mpc to this and back). I am a Marcinkiewicz artist and am thinking of asking Joe to make me a piece for this horn. With an actual Mellophone mpc, the out of tune notes fall in strange places. The E and Eb seem pretty good but the F in the staff is WAY flat. The octave from middle C (written) to 3rd space C seems stretched. Some of this will, no doubt, be me getting adjusted to the larger I.D. of the mello mpc. Sound gets better as you go up with a very "Poppy" G above the staff and a gorgeous Ab! Middle C down to the low F# are fat and punchy. It is the fifth between middle C and G in the staff that are kinda funky, but so far nothing you can not fix as you go. Behind the bell, it sounds kinda honky, but practice room recordings tell me that is not whats coming out of the bell. I do not think there is anything wrong with this horn that some practice room time would not fix. Cheesy Okay. I did get Marcinkiewicz to make me a piece for this horn. Partially because it was so hard to find something to fit it. I finally sent him the Bach 3 I had been playing and asked him to match the shank to that. We talked about my difficulty in switching back and forth from my horn piece (about 17.5mm internal diameter) to the Bach (what is it, about 19.75mm?) and back. Apparently, he has been working with some of the band directors in his area on mello mpcs for marching band anyway, so he had "mellos on the brain" right then. What he sent me has the same ID as the horn mpc he made at the same time (seems bigger than my old one to me...) and looks to be modelled on the 6V mello mpc that, apparently, comes with many marching horns? The Kelley mpc is based on this and Joes is of a similar depth (pretty darn shallow compared to the Bachs). How does it sound? Well, it projects like crazy! At first I thought it was too bright, but I am realizing that what sounds dark enough to me is actually WAY to dark to play on a gig (for both horn and mello). At a soft volume, I can get that sort of "fluffy" jazz flugel kind of thing going on and then as you put more air into it, instead of getting brighter and harder the sound gets fatter and denser, more "french horn-like" for want of a better term. In fact, the middle and upper registers just sound huge! The scale is still out (but I kinda expected that) and the design of this mpc makes it a bit harder to pull to E and F at the bottom of the staff (written) up to where I want them. I am having trouble getting the Ab, A Bb, B and C above the staff to center. I know it is a combination of me with this mpc because I can pop them out on the Bach, but they will not lock with the Marcinkiewicz. I am going to write him about that. To be honest, when I first saw the cup shape and depth, I was disappointed. It just looked too small and shallow. Shows that you should use your ears first and eyes second, I guess. Wink Edit: OK. I guess my chops were just WAY off yesterday. After writing the above post, I picked up the Holton and started to just play - no long warmup, just music - and the notes is question, though a little ragged because of I was cold, speak and center just fine. I do think they do not center WHERE I think they should which could cause the problem. Anyway, I am going to record the mello today and see what is going on in front of the bell...

Livain made instruments from 1875-1930 Photo used courtesy of Phils Rugs and Relics, http://www.rugs-n-relics.com GSMonks Said: These 8 C French horns were a staple of French orchestras up until fairly recently. To the best of my knowledge, these instruments are an exclusively French phenomenon, and I am not aware of any manufacturers of these horns that were not French, although you never know whats going to turn up. These horns dont turn up for sale that often, because most owners hang on to them, in part because theyre no longer made, except by special order (any brasswind can be made special-order if you have the specs).

Prior to the Bb horns, mellos were usually an Eb or F horn in single form, and in "deluxe" form came with various ways and means to play in Eb, D and C for F horns, and D and C for Eb horns. These horns also often came with 2 mouthpieces, one mello sized and one trombone sized. The Bb horns, however, are more modern, and seem to parallel the Bb marching "French" horns, which is what I assume they were used for- to play Bb "French" horn parts. The thing is, however, that here in Canada we never see Bb "French" horn parts in band music, and we only very rarely see physical examples of Bb marching "French" horns and mellophones. I am sure both types of horns are still made (mellos and Horns in Bb), but I do not know where in the US they are used or where the music comes from or what type of band music is involved. HORNDAWG: well, I have never seen a Bb mello (but I have not seen that many mellos at all), but Bb french horns play regular F parts. Like tuba players, you just change fingerings. The purpose of using a Bb horn is to spread the partials back out a bit where they start to get treacherous on the longer F horn. So, you would never see any Bb french horn parts, nor would you know (unless you were particularly observant and the horn player was using a Bb single, rather than playing on the Bb side of a regular double horn) that the F part was being played on a Bb horn. I know, it gets rather convoluted. Imagine when you add Bb/f alto descants and triple horns into the mix!

One of the valves is engraved: Besson & Co./Brevete/95103. The horn is engraved: Class A/New Creation/Besson & Co./Prototype/198 Euston Road/London, England/Carl Fischer/6 4th Ave., New York/Sole Agent to States. There is a "Gibson Girl" engraved on the horn area, as well as a bugler boy by the edge of the rim."

But, the serial number list is a combined Boosey and Besson list, which is before Besson was part of the Boosey company. And, this serial indicates 1935 manufacture

668 Trombone Holton 65 162817 1946 Instrument
The Holton 65 was produced from the mid 40s into the late 50s early 60s. Bore .458 with either a red brass or silver plated one-piece red brass 7" or 7 1/2 bell and nickel silver outer slide tubes with oversleeves. Some had nickle-silver neckpipes, some had an L shape brace on the underside of the hand brace. Engraving ranged from Frank Holton 65 to a sun with Holton and serial number running through the middle of it. The Holton 65 was theanser to the King 2-B, Conn 4H/24H and Bach 6. They have a brighter sound than the 2-B. Buddy Morrow famously played a Holton 65 for many years. The Holton 69 was a variation on the 65 (8" red brass bell (Buddy Morrow and Bennie Green played it). The 67 Stratodyne was a variation with with special braces and engraving, a brass neckpipe, lightweight 7in red bell. The 66 Galaxy added a .485/.500 duo-bore but used the same bell mandril and neckpipe in nickel silver.
669 Cornet Turtle, W 1358 Instrument
An eBay seller contacted me to tell me about this horn he is currently selling and to request any further information we could find on it. So, is there more knowledge out there somewhere? Langwill lists an A. Turtle but no W. Turtle, so it is speculated that this is a relative, possibly a son. A. Turtle was a cornet maker in Manchester England. My speculations: Since W Turtle and A Turtle are using the same physical address, it probably means one of two things. Either W. was working in As shop, or W. bought As shop. Since there is little information on A. and none on W. I would lean towards the idea that W. was working in As shop. The dates associated with A. are that he is known to have been at that address in 1894. And, that seems to be the first documented date on him that I have. It is possible he had been making horns before that. And, the last date is 1900, which is also associated with a different address (86 London Rd). Again, it is possible that he flourished longer than that. But it would seem that A. moved from Ogden St sometime between 1894 and 1900. And, so it would be reasonable to presume that this horn had probably been produced before the turn of the 20th century. It looks very much the same as the Bessons of the same time period.

His contribution to the style progress of trumpeters was considerable. His influence will have a decisive effect on the rapidity with which the trumpet will get its preponderant place at the end of the 19th century. Taking account of the technical and artistic evolution of the trumpet, he will be one of the most talented instrumental performers, not at all avoiding the difficult parts composed by baroque music masters and which nobody dared to play. It seems he was the first instrumentalist to perform, in its integral version and without modifications, the perilous trumpet part of the 2nd Brandenburg Concerto written by Johann Sebastian Bach. 21in tall

thetubameister: This is not in G, but C or Bb tubaron: This looks alot like the G trumpet I was loaned in college by neighboring University of Iowa, to play Sibelius Symphony No 2 in D minor. Of course, nearly 40 years might cloud the picture (as well as the music citation) a little. Unfortunately, I had too little exposure to it to train the embouchure and get the ear to adjust, so I ended up transposing the music for my Bb. gsmonks: You are right- its a C trumpet. The original modern "trumpet" was of this type, and first appeared in the 1880s in Europe in A, Bb and C. It would be nice if we could be the ones to nail down the exact date. Same goes for the Perinet version. No one yet has nailed down the exact date/first maker. One item of note- notice that the difference between these A, Bb and C horns and the Perinet varieties is that these horns go straight from the mouthpiece into cylindrical tubing and do not have a conical lead-pipe. I am not sure what the percentage is, but with a 5 ft instrument, 6 1/2" to 7 1/2" of conical lead-pipe is the difference between rotary and Perinet A, Bb and C "trumpets".

770 Cornet Couturier 2768 1923 Instrument
"S" bore, Bell reads " CONICAL BORE / PAT D / E A Couturier Co. Ltd / -MAKERS- / LA PORTE / -IND- " Courtier was a well known soloist at the turn of the century, though not well recorded. He first worked with Holton on the "Couturier Model", then with York, and in 1916 he and others opened their own business, "E. A. Couturier Co., Ltd.," with the intention of building instruments using his continuous conical bore patent. This cornet uses a minimum of cylindrical tubing. There are three different tuning slides, each to be used when necessary to remove the longer slides needed for high/low pitch, for example. The valve tubing has no slides at all, with the performer expected to make the adjustments required when performing by lipping up or down with the deep mouthpiece . An A valve is provided, but again, there are no adjustments that can be used on any of the horn. The firm was bought by Lyon & Healy in 1923, and ended production in 1929.

777 Cornet (anon) Bb/A Instrument
The Side Action Rotery Valve (SARV) cornet is assumed American, has Allen-type valves, and is made of nickel silver. The bell has a rolled edge, and no garland. Since the first valve is appproximately an half step, it could be intended to be an A valve, but the actuating mechanism is lost. Or, since the what is now the first side action valve appears to have been lengthened and the second perhaps cut, it may be that this cornet was intended for another valve tuning entirely (other than what became the standard)...
778 Cornopean (anon) Instrument
The Stölzel Valve Cornopean is nickel plated brass, and has a rolled bell. It came with crooks for F (shown), G, and high pitch G, but plays perfectly fine when a straight Bb or A shank is used. It is unmarked, although there is a 10mm circular soldering mark on the bell where a makers crest would have been affixed, or perhaps a music holder. It has been suggested to me that this looks like the work of Gautrot of Paris. If so, that would place its manufacture about 1845-1885.

Bell 23.5 inch Pryorphone: From TubeNet (about another similar horn, which was stolen, but later recovered): "If the owners could remember, whether the makers shield has a German or a Czech text, that will narrow down the dating options. It was oval, said "Kraslice" rather than "Konigsgrad" and was in Czech. I would have reckoned late 20s-early 30s. The folks at the Cerveny shop in Prauge at first denied ever having made one, but Mr. Prem in Kraslice did email me later to say that they may have made sousa before WW2, but those records were long gone.

808 Cornet Holton Ideal 120750 1937 Instrument
bell4 1/2 in Bore .457 Engraving: Holton Ideal Made by Holton Elkhorn Wi. The Ideal has the same unique wrap used by Holton on several of their cornets, such as the Military Model, Model 25, Herbert Clarke, etc.. The lack of a cross brace from the leadtube to the belltube and the pictured cornet mouthpiece all indicate that this is a cornet. I personally think that the owner made the very common mistake of calling his extended cornet a trumpet. The added loop in the leadpipe even has its own spit valve, indicating that this extra loop was added by holton to arrive at the length of tubing needed for proper intonation. I own a silver plated Clarke model which, other than for the finish is identical in appearance to the Ideal. Mine is definately a cornet, and, I love its sweet, dark cornet tone

817 Trumpet Reynolds 10xx Instrument
very early Reynolds professional trumpet, serial number 1,0XX. (Reynolds was one of the few companies which was allotted brass by the U.S. government to continue production during WWII. Some Reynolds instruments survive with "US" engraved on the bell flair, identifying them as having been made for the US military. ) "In that early era before WWII, Reynolds made only quality instruments. There were no model designations. This is the same era of Reynolds trumpet that Frank Kaderabek played in high school--before he bought his first Benge. (I put this trumpet in his hands, he played it, and he verified the statement in the preceeding sentence.) Note the threaded tuning ring on the main tuning slide--similar to the Blessing "Super Artist" and the early King "Master Model" cornet--for quick-change to key of "A." Note the pull lines on each of the three slides (including a pull-out on the third slide) for adjusting to key of "A." This was a carry-over from an earlier era in which such key change from Bb to A was common for cornet playing." inscriptionMADE BY/ F.A. REYNOLDS/ CLEVELAND, O. Bore .459
818 French Horn Fischer Instrument
bell 12 1/2in bore size .450. Engraving Carl Fischer Horndawg: This is what is known as a "compensating double" horn. In Bb the air flows through the top set of slides. To put the horn in F, you press the thumb valve which also send air into the second set of slides. So, instead of a full set of F and Bb slides sharing a mouthpipe and bell, you use one set of slides for Bb and both sets for F. The few of these I have played tend to have a pretty stuffy F horn. I once owned a compesating triple (Paxman, medium bore - very small for an American player) that had a nice f alto horn and a very nice Bb horn (the alto horn is independent, only the lower two horns use the compesating principle), but the low F horn was like blowing into a sock! the low F horn was stuffy no matter what register I was in. I think (and this is just a guess) that it is caused by a combination of too many sharp bends in the tubing and going through the valves too many times (as you said). That said, I know there are some really nice compensators out there and people do play them. You probably just have to be really aware of how you wrap the darn thing!

A bit of the secret, I think, is to be found in the quick bore taper of the gooseneck and tuning slide and its comparatively wide bell stem. The tone is dark, slender and focused all the way from low F and three octaves up...it’s almost impossible to overblow; it doesn t crack up or become shrill even at very loud dynamics. Slotting and intonation are very close to perfection. "

This is a Van Cauwelaert French Horn. Natural horn by Van Cauwelaert, Belgian maker. Cauwelaert was one of the most highly respected maker of the early valved horn. bell 10 3/4 in features the triangular gusset construction of that era, with an unusually stout turned-up rim, eliminating the need for a garland to strengthen itself. The bell interior has been enameled and gilded, in the 19th century style, as a protective measure against the erosion of the metal of the bell, from the increased levels of hand motion associated with hand the stopping technique. Makers name is engraved on the bell. Ttuning slide was placed on the players side of the horn body. The thumb moves this slide, rather than the fingers. This is a feature that is found on all double horns, today, but was unusual during the 19th century.

950 Natural Horn Kies Instrument
Viennese model natural horn, with a set of crooks for ALL keys, by W Kies, Wien. The layout of the horn is identical to Leopold Uhlmanns design of the 1800s, but the bell is larger than most of Uhlmanns, earlier, instruments. One researcher believes that Kies is a counterfeit name for Kuss. The badge identifying the horn is in silver.

979 Cornet Holton Couturier 13359 1911 Instrument
Engraving: COUTURIER MODEL NEW PROPORTION MADE BY FRANCK HOLTON CHICAGO Biber: It seems a little unclear to me as to what distinguished the Clarke model from the plain new proportion model and the couturier model. Was it just bore size? I have seen ads showing Clarke model instruments both with and without shepherds crook. Surely Clarkes customization of the model was more than bore size. Pryorphone: The cornet stayed the same regardless of who was endorsing it (and whos name they put on it). There were times when"New Proportion" model was made with was no endorsing artist: 1907 to some of 1909 and some of 1912 to at least 1918. I know of "Couturier Model" New Proportions with 0, 0-, 0½, and 1 bores, so it would be my assumption that this worked the same way when Clarke endorsed them. From 1918 on, the cornet was known as the "Holton-Clarke Model" I have not tracked anything beyond Chicago, so I can not tell you any more than that. OLDLOU: I have two Holton Clarke Model cornets from about the same era. One is a shepherds crook type, which is appreciably shorter than the other, which is a typical extended cornet design. this just might answer the question per the Holton Clarke or Couturier, or, New Proportion short cornets. One of the major differences that I have noted in these two old horns is that the shepherds crook model will not fit into the original factory case for the non s c design. A minor difference is that the shepherds crook model will accept a modern Bach type cornet mouthpiece shank, whereas, the non s c horn has a much smaller diameter i.d. in the receiver. Biber: as the New Proportion design or its other incarnations (Clarke, Couturier) ever offered as a trumpet or trumpet-shank instrument? the reason I ask is that I just saw a publicity photo of the fortmer child prodigy trumpet soloist Edna White. the photo was easily from the 1940s (eitherway considerably after her switch from cornet to trumpet) and showed her holding what I am almost 100% sure is a Holton-Clarke cornet. Kenton: The Couturier line had a trumpet. Though it is really pushing it to call it a trumpet. i.e. a trumpet is supposed to be cylindrical until it goes into the bell branch. Course, no modern trumpets do fit this description. But the Couturier model took this to an extreme. It took a trumpet shank mouthpiece but was conical throughout. I would be surprised if Clarke endorsed a trumpet. He was very vocal in opposition to the trumpet over the cornet.

1042 Tenor Cor Boosey 35013 1888 Instrument
Engraved: class A trademark Boosey patent compensating pistons Boosey & Co 295 Regent st London gsmonks: This is a bass ballad horn in C, not a tenor cor. Though its called a "bass" horn, its really in the same range as the trombone/baritone/euphonium. Its also a Boosey & Co. instrument, not a Boosey & Hawkes instrument. These horns were invented by Henry Distin who sold the patent and his outfit to Boosey & Co. in 1868. Boosey subsequently came out with a bell-up version of these horns in SAB, the bass actually being a tenor instrument. The soprano instrument was played using a "French" horn mouthpiece and was refered to as liedhorn. Distin seems to have kept the patent to the bell-down "bass" version of his ballad horn, and I suspect that he was able to do this because the patent itself was erronious, as the Distin ballad horn was a knockoff of the 1855 Antoine Courtois Koenig horn. The earliest mellophone, made by Kohler & Son ca the late 1870s was likewise a knockoff, so no patent there either. The Kohler mellophone was a knockoff of the Distin ballad horn, so it was a knockoff of a knockoff. These horns are flugle instruments, as you can tell by the deep V cup mouthpiece used to play them and the fat, in some cases rimless, conical bell. This entire family of related instruments was a Franco-Belgian response to the Germanic flugle instruments which were popular in the 1840s. If you compare the bore-profile of the Koenig horn, Ballad horn and early Mellophone to the instruments made by Leipzig instrument builder Johann Joseph Schneider and Viennese instrument-builder Leopold Uhlmann, you will see that the Franco-Belgian instruments were an adaptation (you have to click on the "tenor horn 19 jh" link in order to see the photo): http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&u=http://www.uni-leipzig.de/~m... Here is an 1874 version of that same Distin bell-down Ballad horn. I almost bought this horn when it came up for sale: http://www.brasszone.com/booseyballadhorn14229.htm The later Ballad horns gradually gained a more mellophone-like bell, and the circa 1930 Salvation Army Factory horns just looked like a low C mellophone. The sound of these instruments is reminiscent of the C mellophone, but they are in all ways a better instrument, and have better resonance, meaning that they are devoid of that hollow, grainy sound associated with mellophones.

It is definitely not a tenor cor. Wrong key, wrong mouthpiece, wrong kind of plumbing. The lead-pipe appears to be missing, but I am certain it would accept a "French" horn mouthpiece, based on the narrow gauge of the tubing.

1219 Trumpet Cleveland Greyhound C33407 Instrument
tooslick: I had sold a Cleveland trumpet and received an email a short time later from a gentleman claiming to be the grandson of the original owner of the Cleveland Musical Instrument Company. He told me that the horn I sold was made by his grandfathers company prior to its being bought out in 1925. He also stated that the original company used the letter c in front of the serial numbers. He said if the engraving reads Made By Cleveland Musical Instr. Co. with no mention of H.N. White it was made prior to 1925. I have no way to verify what the gentleman wrote(or even if he was who he claimed to be) but I thought I would pass his info along. The H.N. White 1935 catalog shows the same horn with slightly different bell engraving. I guess the bottom line is that I am not really sure when this horn was made! hornman64: Going back to reply #2 or tooslick on Cleveland Mus. Inst Cos serials as opposed to after the HN White purchase in 25, OldLou and I have been puzzled over the alleged "c" supposed to be on the CMICs horns. We both have American Standard Cornets, his being a bit older than mine. It looks like there is only the HN White serial list extant. Mine still has the Cleveland Musical Instruments co as maker on the bell medallion despite apparently being made after 1930 and before 1935 (ser. 14xxx) long after the sale. This would not coincide with the opinion of the person passing along info to tooslick. I see in the Cleveland Cornet section, a reverse S curve marked c-35191 which is the same design as my pre- WWI Bohemia Concertone cornet and also the trumpet in reply #7. So, I would conclude White continued to use the CMIC Medallions for quite some years before putting the HN White name in the same spot.

Many manufacturers would buy his parts. OLDLOU: I just bought from another collector, a York Master Model trumpet in near mint condition. This is a very rare artist grade horn with a 4 7/8" rose brass bell, embellished with an inch wide nickel silver Krantz ring. From the serial # I found this horn to be of 1946 manufacture. A measurement of the second valve crook inner tubing shows the bore to be quite large,.462". The main tuning slide has a micrometer adjustment, just like that of King ,Reynolds,etc. This is a very fine horn and the palyability seems to justify the hype that York gave it in its day.

Valve cluster numbered 15258 Distin was at this 1862-8 Distin sold out to Boosey in 1868, but Boosey continued to use the name Distin and Co, and used the field trumpet and banner. Distin agreed not to make instruments under his own name within 100 miles of London. I also learned something else from Arnold. These horns were called Ventil horns. This answers a lot of questions for me because I have been trying to peg the Ventil horns for years. At a glance the darned things look like other bell-up instruments. The tip-off is the cylindrical tubing, the bell size and type, and the lack of a lead-pipe. Boosey was at 9-11 Grt Newport St. London in 1868. So, one can speculate that this horn was possibly made by Boosey before the expansion. GSMonks: I just heard back from Arnold Myers, and according to him, despite appearances this is a circular, bell-up, Bb valved trombone. I readily admit that I was fooled both by the appearance, and the fact that I have never seen or heard of such a thing.

Unclear whether this is a fluglehorn or a Solo alto, so we are making a hopefully educated guess that it is a solo alto. Langwill lists this maker but only reports a fluglehorn. bell 7.5 in length 18.5 inches EngravedSysteme Perfectionne (inside a banner) / L. ROSSIGNOL / Brevete Morlanwelz OLDLOU After closely observing the overall length of the tubing , the length of the valve tubing, and the size of the bell flare, it seems pretty obvious to me that you are correct in your evaluation of this old horn as an alto instrument, unless the maker wished to call it an alto flugel. gsmonks: Thing is, that is a Saxhorn bell, not a flugle bell, although the flugle thing is muddy where Saxhorns are concerned because the modern "fluglehorn" is really a Bb alto bell-forward Saxhorn whose proper name is "Infanterie Saxhorn". There is also the rare Eb soprano. But that still makes the Eb alto/tenor bell-forward version a "solo alto". There is a true Eb alto/tenor fluglehorn, but it has a big rimless funnel for a bell, and is a Germanic, not a Franco-Belgian instrument.

1359 French Horn Olds 1956 Instrument
Quoting the seller: In the 1950s Olds was in Fullerton, California having moved from LA a few miles away. During this era Olds trumpets and trombones were really fine quality instruments and fine artists of the day used them and there was even a "studio series". The LA sound is what one hears on most of the soundtracks of movies made during that period. Olds was being run at this time by Mr. Reynolds who had closed down his Ohio factory and had taken up the task of helping Olds to gain market share over Conn. The studio musicians of the day used Conn 8Ds and Kruspes, both usually with modified leadpipes. It was probably Reynolds who decided to use the Geyer wrap on this "high end" horn, although I am not sure. The man who made the valves for Carl Geyer in Chicago was in LA and sold valves to the Olds company as well. He may have offered the valves to Olds and that may be how this Olds horn got the valves of a Geyer... they really were from the same shop! I think that Mr. Reynolds was trying to build a better horn than Conn, and this geyer/knopf wrap allowed him to build a big horn with a freer blowing feel. The horn plays with a fine clear dark ringing tone. It is a fine horn made to compete with the big Nickel horns of the day, yet using the Geyer wrap. It was just too costly a horn to break into a field dominated by Conn...especially as this is during the time when Conns were becoming the most used professional horn in the US.

The Bell engraving reads “BESSONS” rather than “BESSON”. The finger hook is poorly and incorrectly shaped as well as in the wrong position. The sides of the finger buttons are perfectly straight with sharp edges, Besson ones are slightly sloped and eased. The tube unions lack and rolled ends in the places common to all Besson cornets of this wrap. The valve slide ferrules are an older style not used on Besson cornets after 1890-ish. The loop of tubing forward of the valves between the tuning slide and third valve is a slide on a Besson of this wrap from 1867 through well into the 20th century (hi/low pitch slides). This one is fixed as on an 1866.

1434 French Horn Reynolds Contempora Instrument
horndawg: In an effort to boost horn sales in the early 1940s, Reynolds contacted Max Pottag, long-time second horn with the Chicago Symphony, to design and endorse a new horn. The design of the Reynolds Double French Horn, Pottag Model, was allegedly "borrowed" from Kruspe, but the dimensions and playing characteristics were very much like the Conn 6D, previously designed by Pottag. The "Contempora" brand name was added around 1950. After Pottags retirement, Roth-Reynolds approached James Chambers (New York Philharmonic, 1946- 1969) with a similiar idea for collaboration. Chambers liked the existing layout of the Pottag horn, but wanted a bigger bell throat, heavier bell and the nickel-silver alloy that he was used to from playing his Conn 8D. After two years of design and development, he endorsed the Reynolds Contempora Double French Horn, Chambers Model in 1958 and played it for three seasons until a contract dispute with the new owners (Richards|RMC) regarding royalty payments and their expectations of his level of promotional activity for Reynolds prompted Chambers to return to his Conn 8D horn. After James Chambers returned to Conn in the early 1960s, Reynolds removed the "Chambers" designation and kept the "Contempora" label. The Cleveland-produced Contempora FE-01 (nickel silver) and FE-03 (brass) horns retained the thicker bell of the Chambers model; however, when production moved from Cleveland to Abilene in 1964, the new horns had standard weight bells (.011" compared to .018"). Reportedly, there was also a change to the bell throat size, with the new horns placed somewhere between the Pottag and Chambers models. The horn specifications were tweaked again when Reynolds moved production to the Olds plant in Fullerton. The Pottag, Chambers and Contempora Double French horns from Reynolds were very fine instruments in their day and highly rated along with well-known horns from Conn and Holton. To the ears of many, Reynolds Contempora horns play as well as the best custom horns being produced today. The Contempora was a contemporary of the Conn 8D The Reynolds Double French Horn is a most sensitively responding instrument and has an unusually easy-speaking upper register - so important to Horn players. Its wondrous tone quality, complete even range and sureness is noteworthy. I am using it exclusively, love it and I am happy indeed to recommend it to any French Horn player. [Max Pottag, 1953] ... 1940s-Early 1960s Model 160 [FE-04] Bb/F Double French Horn | Bore: .472" | Bell: 12"; medium bell throat | Large leadpipe | Kruspe wrap style | Materials: brass with nickel silver slide tubes and trim | Finish: clear lacquer finish Model 161 [FE-02] Bb/F Double French Horn | Bore: .472" | Bell: 12"; medium bell throat | Large leadpipe | Kruspe wrap style | Materials: solid nickel silver | Finish: clear lacquer finish | Introduced in mid 1950s Model Notes The Pottag Model 160 (brass) was available for almost 20 years, from the early/mid-1940s (SN 24264) to the early 1960s. Model 161 (nickel silver) was introduced late during the model lifecycle, most likely in conjunction with the nickel-silver Chambers horn developed in the late 1950s and introduced in 1958 (see below). The Pottag models continued to be sold after the introduction of the Chambers model, even into the RMC-era of the company in the early 1960s, and were presumably discontinued along with the Chambers models after the new Contempora models were introduced (see above). Model renumbering, e.g. from 160 to FE-04, occurred during the Richards Music Company ownership (1961-1963). There was a report of an early model Pottag horn with a tone ring (kranz) similar to the Contempora trumpets, cornets and tenor trombones. Howard Sanner on the Pottag Double Horn: "So how does it play? Very well, indeed! It is very free blowing, focused, good in all registers, with an especially easy top octave and a well-centered, easy-to-control low register. I recently played it and my Conn 8D at the inauguration of a recital hall some friends had built on their house. All present, me included, preferred the Reynolds to the 8D. It had a more focused, complex, warmer sound than the 8D." Roth-Reynolds has spared no expense in the development and building of these superb instruments. Skilled designers and craftsmen have combined their arts and talents with James Chambers to make these the finest French Horns of all time ... the undisputed favorite of top French Horn players everywhere. Precision made rotary valves are of the quiet, floating type. They rotate on long, precision-fitted shafts and bearings. Preventing costly friction on the vital rotor shaft which otherwise causes malfunctions. As a result, the Reynolds French Horns are fast and easy to operate, and remain dependable over the years!" [1959] Bb/F Double French Horn | Bore: .472" | Bell: 12" heavyweight bell (.018" thick); large bell throat | Large leadpipe | Kruspe wrap style | Materials: gold brass with nickel silver slide tubes and trim; metal cork holders and unplated rotor levers | Finish: clear lacquer finish Model 191 [FE-01] Bb/F Double French Horn | Bore: .472" | Bell: 12" heavyweight bell (.018" thick); large bell throat | Large leadpipe | Kruspe wrap style | Materials: solid nickel silver; metal cork holders and unplated rotor levers | Finish: clear lacquer finish Model Notes The Contempora Chambers horn was introduced in the fall of 1958. Chambers used and endorsed the horn for three seasons until Reynolds was purchased by Richards Music and a contract dispute with the new management team (see horn introduction above) led to the end of their collaboration. James Chambers: "During the past two years I have collaborated with Roth-Reynolds skilled designers and French horn craftsmen in the development of a new and vastly improved Double French horn. The resulting instrument has exceeded all expectations. It combines maximum playing quality with an ease of response not generally associated with horns capable of producing such a full rich tone. Here, at last, is an instrument fully capable of satisfying the most exacting requirements of the professional while retaining those characteristics which make it the ideal choice for the student. Today I am using the Reynolds Chambers Model Double French Horn exclusively in my symphony, ensemble and solo playing, my recording work and teaching. I enthusiastically recommend this horn for all types of playing." Bill Bamberg on the Chambers Double Horn: "As a horn player, I have several Contempora french horns. The Chambers model, when being built in Cleveland, I consider to be the best big American (Conn 8D clone) ever produced. When they went to Abilene, they discontinued the heavy bell, but an Abilene horn, properly set up, plays as well as the best custom horns being produced today. Recently I got a "new old stock" Cleveland Chambers to rest the Chambers I bought new in 1962. I did all my pro playing on that horn, and performed Mozart 3 with Fiedler and the Pops, in Symphony Hall, Boston, in 1969. My teacher, Ralph Pottle, played with the Boston Symphony. The Symphony players were impressed with the horn, but by 1969, the Cleveland horns were long gone. Jimmie Chambers played his for three seasons with the NY Philharmonic, until he had a falling out with the new Reynolds owners and went back to his 8D."

Interesting!!! This is the first cornet that I have encountered that was made as a C cornet with a slide to C other than the old Conn which had a verical slide in the belltube for conversion to Bb. Pryorphone: My 1908 and 1909 Conn Wonderphone cornets are set up that way; C all the way in, with lines for Bb and A. High and low pitch besides!

However I have seen listings for a few horns using this layout manufactured in Germany. Have not been able to snag one yet, but I betting they play much better.
1531 Trombone Williams-Wallace 6 10025 Instrument
8 in bell Earl Williams and John Wallace started making instruments in 1936 in LA. Williams had previously worked for Holton and Olds. The Wallace trombone was introduced in 1939. The number of horns made per year was approx 50. After Williams died, the company was sold and moved to Donelson, TN. After moving to Donelson, the serial numbers started at 10,000. This horn is a Donelson,Ten, not an original Williams. The Williams 6 has been used as a model design for other makers, including: S.E. Shires Company Small bore horn (Seller says: "Having worked there at the time, I even remember seeing the horn at the shop."), Kanstul 1606 and Conn. 100H.

1558 French Horn Sansone 2426 Instrument
1559 French Horn Sansone 2688 Instrument
inscribed Lorenzo Sansone New York U.S.A. It was played in the 1940s, so it is at least that old bell 12.5 in LOPT: This model of double horn had the smaller Bb valve slides above the F slides. In the picture several of the slides are in the wrong place. Third valve is OK. First valve...move top slide to lower position....take second valve lower slide and put it on top of first valve. Take the remaining two slides and place the longer one on the bottom of the second valve and the shorter one on top. Its not a well-liked model (later copied by Holton). Sansone is most noted for single Bb horns with as many as 5 valves. I have a 3-valve Bb Sansone and a 1938 King 1155 which was based on Sansones 5-valve Bb model. dankney: I do not understand why anyone could dislike a Sansone Double. Mine plays like a dream. I play an Elkhart 8D as my main horn; this is my "small horn" for chamber work. Its as free-blowing as my 8D (very mild resistance), but is much "notchier" and easier to balance in chamber work (a full-sounding pp takes a huge amount of effort on my 8d). It can do a decent FF as well, but its a Chicago-style sound, not the dark 8D sound that I love for large orchestra work. Sure, its no Lewis or Geyer original, but if you want a Chicago-style horn and ca not afford the price point for one of the big names, its fabulous.

Is it possible that mine was a prototype for the stencil horn shown, or possibly mine was a horn that got out of the factory with the wrong bell logo ?

This instrument, designed exactly after the famous Adolphe Sax flugelhorn model. KimC: Worth to notice are the 1st and 3rd valve loops, they are almost like Berliner Pumpen, with loop entries on each side of the valve housing. The different entry levels of the conection tubes hovever, show that they are of the perinet type.

OLDLOU: Are you certain that this is an 80? The krantz ring on the bell rim tells me that it is a Super Deluxe. I have one of each ( cornets ) in my collection,along with a 90 and a Super Deluxe,( trumpets ). If you have this cornet available for inspection, the 80s all had undersprung valves and "most" of the Super Deluxe models had top sprung valves. If this one has top sprung valves, it is surely a Super Deluxe. Pryorphone: It was my impression that all the Super Deluxes (cornets & trumpets) had a copper-colored ring, and were trimmed with fittings of the same material. OLDLOU: The krantz rings were sometimes nickel silver, just like the slides. I missed noticeing the smooth ferrules. I am wondering about the spit valve on the leadpipe. It looks to be a replacement. Every top line Getzen I have seen from the era that this one seems to be had a side mounted spit valve on both the leadpipe and the third valve slide. That is what is still on the third valve slide crook. Another unusual item is the retainer screw under the third valve slide. What was it for? It could not be there to stop the slide from going too far out, as there is no pinky ring to adjust the intonation of the third valve. In my opinion, this horn has been somewhat modified.

Engraved on the bell U.I.G./179/2994/ Kaspar Wicky/ Geneve/the Couesnon logo/COUESNON/ET CIE./Paris/Monopole Conservatoire Tubaron: What makes this a french horn and not a mellophone? Looks like it is made for right hand on valves. Do french horns ever have piston valves? Pryorphone: First off, it is left handed. See the thumb ring visible inside the loop the lead pipe? The pinky goes in the hook, and the fingers go over the tubing to the valves. The right hand goes in the bell. Yes, there have been some horns built with piston valves. There have even been right handed horns built. The real teller is the length of the horn, and the length of the valve tubing. A mellophone is an octave ABOVE the horn, so that the valve tubing is much shorter, along with the total inside length of the horn. It does not matter what kind of valves you use, but you are right, USUALLY a mellophone ia piston valve and right handed; a horn, rotary, and left handed.

1776 Tuba Couesnon C Instrument
Pitch C bore .615in bell 10-5/8in Pryorphone: It is C with 6 valves and is called a "French tuba", and was used a such in French orchestras for years. Valves 2 and 5 both descended 1 semitone (added 15.7 cm to the air column) Valve 1 descended 2 semitones (added 32.2 cm to the air column) Valve 3 descended 4 semitones (added 68.3 cm to the air column) Valve 4 descended 5 semitones (added 87.9 cm to the air column) Valve 6 descended 8 semitones (added 154.2 cm to the air column) Even though this is a step higher than a modern euphonium, it should be considered a tuba. These instruments replaced the C ophicleide, and were the brass bass in Gaulic orchestras until the second half of the 20th century. If I remember my stories correctly, Mel Culbertson was hired for a Paris symphony, and he played a modern CC tuba, instead of the French C. In the spirit of European labor, other French tuba players got miffed at what they considered an affront to their "nationalistic" sound, and went on strike. The symphonies hired replacements (all of whom played modern tubas), and in short order the French C tuba was no longer in use.

OLdLOU: The York "Custom Trumpet" shown as reply # 11 is a twin to one that I currently own and play often. This model is identical to my York Master Model trumpet in overall design and manufacture. The major differences are in the materials used and the cosmetic,(?) additions on the Master model, which has a bronze bell with a 1" nickel silver Kranz ring,( tone ring ). They are both superlative instruments. When I worked at the York plant we saw a very few of these come through for factory repairs and they were called "those German made Yorks". I now wonder who actually made them.

1856 Fluglehorn Stowasser Instrument
Engraved: Stowasser J. Budapest 12in long bell 5-1/4in Johann Stowasser Company in business from 1770-1944 gsmonks: This is actually a fluglehorn. It has a wide conical bell with no flare, plus no lead-pipe. KimC: Look at the extra loop where the tuning slide is, the tube is longer as it appears on first look. Also, judging from the valve loops, I would say it is not in eb, rater in bb. It could be c, or a it is hard to estimate from a photo. Bb is the most likely. Stowasser will have selected that layout, in order to be able to place the valve engine as close to the mouthpiece as possible. That would allow a more regular conical shape of the bore. Fluegelhorns could have a single -slided tuning device at the mouthpiece, but that would take up a little tubing too, that would need to be cylindrical. I am sure that the tuning slide will not fit if turned wrong, as one slide would be thicker than the other. Pryorphone: I am thinking C. That 2nd valve slide is awfully short. It is hard to get a sense of scale, but whatever the bore, I do not think I see enough tubing there to be a Bb, and too much for a soprano.

Krax: I have one exactly like this one, or maybe I have this one? Since it is posted around the same time as I bought mine on ebay... It is made in Czechoslovakia, do not have any serial number but it has that little anchor on the second valve that seems to tell us that it was made by Bohland & Fuchs. Part of the tuning slide is removable like a King Liberty - it is possible to tune it in C, Bb and A. Update: I recently acquired a mouthpiece which seem to have been made for this or similar trumpets, it shares the same kind of Art Deco design as the pull knobs and the mouthpiece reciever on the trumpet . Anyway, it is interesting because it is very short, actually exactly as long as a standard (long shank) cornet mouthpiece but with a trumpet taper.

"This 74H model (the same model number was used previously on several other models) does not appear on most lists of Conn trombone models that I have seen. However, you will find it on the one at http://www.missouri.edu/~cceric/bones.html."

I have an almost identical high pitch C trumpet without the afore mentioned loop and made by Carl Gottleib Schuster of the same town. ( Michaels father? ) Mine has a 6" bell without the Kranz ring and without any spit valves. I would wager that mine is the older of the two instruments. It plays like a flugel if I use a deep vee mouthpiece.

Adam Peck: manufactured tubas in Germany before WWII and that they are known for their fine playing characteristics. Not to be confused with the brand name Sanders, Sandner tubas were interesting in that they had their tuning slides placed upwards toward the top bow of the tuba( this is a feature many modern manufacturers incorporate into their tubas.). These slides could be manipulated by the players left hand.

1914 Tuba Meinl F Instrument
Pryorphone: The fourth fills in the missing notes from low F# down to pedal C on a CC with no "false tones". 5 & 6 can be different lengths, depending on the setup, but basically give you alternate fingering possibilities to cover, say, that annoying flat 5th partial. It is very much like having a compensating horn, only YOU get to pick how much compensation you get and when you want to use it. Adam Peck: Extra valves just give you more options. The 5th valve has become very popular these days and probably 80% of all CC tubas have five valves. A five valve F tuba is a neccessity and many players would not do without a 6 valve f Tuba. I personally would not own a 4 valve CC tuba unless it played out-of-this-world well. An Eb tuba with 3 valves can only play down to A below the bass clef staff. For this reason I am adding a 4th valve to my old Tourville&Cie Eb tuba so I can use it in my groups.

1938 Tuba Marzan CC Instrument
This is my Marzan slant rotor CC tuba, which I used as my main horn in the Delaware Symphony from 1979 until 1997. I bought this horn second hand from what I believe was the original owner in 1977. It has a 19" upright bell, 4 rotors, and a .748" bore. The upward oriented tuning slide was intended to be used in place of the individual valve slides for tuning adjustment. It is marked "Marzan" on the bell, and "Germany" on the receiver. "In 1940, the York Band Instrument Company was sold to the Carl Fisher Company, but production on musical instruments ceased during the war so the factory could make munitions. After the war, the factory reportedly made student horns and sousaphones until it was dismantled in 1971. To keep the reputation of artist-grade Yorks alive, Carl Fisher imported a series of horns under the label York Master that were made in West Germany by Böhm and Meinl. Böhm and Meinl was a maker of good reputation that produced top-line horns for many American importers, including the coveted Marzan CC. The York Master was made in the American style, using designs adapted from the York instruments that had previously been made in the U.S. The York Masters were not nearly as large as the Chicago York, but many report that they had the same characteristic sound and playing qualities. Böhm and Meinl was purchased in 1992 by Walter Nirschl, who continues to produce superb copies of York designs including a popular copy of the Chicago York."¹ "The brace feet on the tubas of this model [Marzan] in my shop are all exactly like those found on Nirschl/B&M...and the 19" quick-expanding bell flare, bottom bow, top bow, etc. all seem to precisely trace the 4/4 "blueprint" of B&M Symphonic tubas offered over the years. Finally, these instruments are constructed of fairly light-gauge material - characteristic of many (with the known exception of the "York Master" tubas) of the B&M tubas"² The owner of D.E.G. Music, Ed Stevens wrote, "This was before my time with DEG, so I checked it with Don Getzen. DEG distributed this instrument, which was manufactured by Böhm & Meinl."

The 1 to 3 tubing on the left side is not any longer than you would get going through the 2nd valve, so I can only assume that this was an experimental production model that did not prove worthwhile, hence the return to a standard flow in future models.

2014 Trumpet Noblet 6785 1950s Instrument
Seller says this a professional, not student, level horn brassyjazz: Courtois made trumpets for Noblet in the 50s and the one shown which I just auctioned on Ebay was a medium 450 bore. The bells used are not the same design as the standard Courtois trumpets of that period which had the additional tonal ring around the bell like the Selmers. Also, the fittings are not as high-end as the standard Courtois. However, they are still a professional horn and play very well. Noblet was a separate company into woodwinds and contracted with Courtois in the 50s to produce quality trumpets. Courtois must have had some unused bells and it was more cost effective to use them in their contract with Noblet then manufacture a new run of the standard bell. In any event, you have a great Noblet as it is almost always a Courtois. Most of the bores on the Noblets were 450 where on the Courtois you could get a 450 designated M or a 456 designated ML. I have had both and I personally like the 450s better.

The old, short mouthpiece is not the same as a modern long one. If it is a modern [cornet] one, I can imagine an older (or Euro) trumpet size fitting, also. If it is an old, short size, then there is no doubt. I have seen the same thing happen on eBay; people calling pre-Conn Ltd (pre-1915) trumpets cornet (which ARE trumpets; they had distinct cornet styles) just because they can be played with a modern dize cornet mouthpiece.

2029 Cornet Gautier Virtuoso Instrument
gsmonks: You know, in going over this model of horn and trying to calculate the conical-to-cylindrical ration, they have more cylindrical tubing than any modern cornet or "trumpet". Pryorphone: Or at least as much as a modern trumpet, given the small bell flare. I would guess that there is about a was between the 2 tuning slides here (one Bb/A, and one tuning) and the usual modern trumpet slide, which evolved long enough do both. The ONLY difference is that this cornet starts off with a [slightly] smaller mouthpipe/mouthpiece size! gsmonks: The modern "trumpet" and cornet have exactly the same amount of conical and cylindrical tubing. You start off with a conical mouthpiece receiver and mouthpiece stem, around 10" of conical lead-pipe, and a conical bell-section. The rest is cylindrical. The average is 65% conical to 35% cylindrical. This particular horn has a very short lead-pipe, and the rest of its plumbing, except for the bell, is cylindrical. I would say its ratio is far closer to 50%, maybe 55% conical vs 45% cylindrical. kenton:I wonder if that is true of all the "S" cornets? Pryorphone: Without taking [possible] differences in the mouthpiece and bell throat, sure! Look at all that cylindrical slide tubing, plus the valve tubing. Some cornets have "stepped" cylendrical tubing as you go further along (but then again, so do some "modern" trumpets, for that matter... )

Pryorphone: From a TubeNet post: "As I understand it Boehm & Meinl is the company that Walter Nirschl now runs. They made stencil horns based on Fred Marzans designs, and made the "York Master" brand, in addition to selling uder their own name. They had a reputation for making quality instruments. I am sure someone else could add more information about their history." and from Rick Denneys website: "In 1940, the York Band Instrument Company was sold to the Carl Fisher Company, but production on musical instruments ceased during the war so the factory could make munitions. After the war, the factory reportedly made student horns and sousaphones until it was dismantled in 1971. To keep the reputation of artist-grade Yorks alive, Carl Fisher imported a series of horns under the label York Master that were made in West Germany by Boehm and Meinl. Boehm and Meinl was a maker of good reputation that produced top-line horns for many American importers, including the coveted Marzan CC. The York Master was made in the American style, using designs adapted from the York instruments that had previously been made in the U.S. The York Masters were not nearly as large as the Chicago York, but many report that they had the same characteristic sound and playing qualities. Boehm and Meinl was purchased in 1992 by Walter Nirschl, who continues to produce superb copies of York designs including a popular copy of the Chicago York." I think that they were likely either Boehm and Meinl or Carl Fisher numbers.

Pryorphone: Holton Collegiate "hatbox" French Horn right handed, piston valve. Although it has many characteristics of a mellophone, it is indeed in French Horn octave F and has no water keys. Among the more interesting traits it has, the valves are offset to match ones finger spread. The bottom sprung valves also have a self-centering protrusion in the bottom valve cap for the springs, with three very small outer air holes. The mouthpipe, bell, and second valve slide all remove when the horn is returned to its case. When assembled, the horn plays just like any single F Horn, only using the wrong hand!

Marked on the 4th valve is "PAT. SEPT 28, 1909" Engraved: John Lockhart, New York, NY Pryorphone: dont know about key change, nor is there a way to lock it into place... but I think that it is a very interesting approach to intonation issues. Given the height of the big valves stem (about a half step), and what most certainly is an internal slide mechanism, this looks like an early application of what would become the trumpets first valve saddle and third valve ring for manual compensation. Its placement, however, means that it can be used for ANY note. What also what became the tuning rods which are attached to many professional tuba and euphoniums main tuning slides. Or the upward oriented tuning slide which I was used to using on my Marzan tuba.

I have one of the long-model Bb horns which is wrapped quite differently. Kenton: I got some revised numbers from the seller. bell diameter 6 5/16in, length 13.5, and tube length 60.5. pryorphone: I am not sure I believe the tube length, but I am guessing 60.5" should be somewhere near G/A alto. The bell measurement sounds early trombone size, my uneducated guess would be high pitch tenor Bb or C. gsmonks: I have a Bb bass trumpet, and this horns valve tubing is slightly shorter, which is why I am pretty sure its a C horn.

2234 Trombone Gladiator Instrument
truments were produced from 1940-1941 and 1950-1953. The Gladiator line up included four instruments: cornet, trumpet, clarinet, and trombone. Gladiator instruments were intended for those who could not afford a Cleveland or American Standard instrument. Quality was very important to The H. N. White Company and Gladiator instruments were built with very high quality for their price range. In 1953 the Gladiator brand was dropped to better spend limited resources on the American Standard brand.

OLDLOU: It would appear that my old CMS Imperial cornet is in every visible way a twin to the Whaley Royce Theodore Martin cornet pictured above. This would indicate to me that my little cornet is in fact at least a horn that was manufactured to the same pattern as the pictured Whaley Royce, immediately above. I was told by the person that I bought it from that her grandfather played it in a Canadian military band, and that the CMS was the initials,( logo ) of Canadian Musical Services. I can not state emphatically that this last is fact, just what the lady told me when I bought the little horn. I, personally do believe that she was correct. If someone in or from Canada can refute or confirm this I would be pleased tio hear from them.

OLDLOU: I am probably in error, but, #9 looks to me to be a double bell tenor horn. My Uncle Jim, down in Fla. Has more double bell instruments than anyone I have ever heard of has one just like this that he calls a tenor horn. Pryorphone: My guess is that this instrument was newly-constructed from parts. I am unaware of either a Conn instrument that used a rotary valve stock, nor one that had the second bell so high and near to the first in diameter. Conn built (American Bb) "tenor horns", and this may be a Frankenhorn, as well.

Bb/A OLDLOU: I just today bought a Lyon and Healy "Own Make" cornet which is similar in all ways to reply # 18. What intrigues me is that this little horn is NOT a shepherds crokk design, but, has the leaf springs on the spit valves which would indicate to me that it was quite an early production. It plays a treat. Kenton: L&H did not start making Own Make until 1896, so this horn can not be any older than that.. . . now to find another short cornet without a shepherds crook. The Conn-Dupont did not have it, an 1893 Distin did not have it. But, you are right, most of the pre-1900 cornets are shepherds crook, and those that are not seem to be mostly imports.

Bell: 8in Bore .464 Eb Crook French horn receiver Horndawg: Had possesion of one for about three weeks and found it beastly hard to hold. Its reputation for horrible intonation held up magnificently (the out of tune notes were in strange places, too!). BUT, the sound of the thing was just glorious. Fat, warm and rich. mputerba: These pictures show a Frumpet with the Eb crook installed, which (at least on my horn) is the proper choice compared to the F crook. In F, the third partial is so sharp that it is closer to C# than C. Love the tone though. gsmonks: This instrument is an identical experiment to the C Vocal horns made back in the 1850s until around 1870. The earliest Vocal horn had a forward-facing bell (later versions strayed from the original design and came in bell-up and bell-down configuration), used a Horn mouthpiece, but was coiled. The Vocal horns had the same intonation issues. They were made and probably were invented by Besson, although the earliest examples I have seen were made by Rudall, Carte & Rose.

Daruby: Curved tuning slide brace vs. straight brace....I realize this is an old posting, but I just wanted to let all know that the earlier Pan American 56Is had the straight brace and the later horns had the curved brace on the tuning slide receiver. Otherwise the horns are the same. I have a 1932 that is straight and a 1934 that is curved. Given the inexpensive construction of these horns and the fact that the tuning slide is just a bent tube (with no brace itself) I suspect they went to the curved brace so that they could "align" the tuning slides and receiver more easily (i.e. by "ball peen" adjustment). I know that I can interchange tuning slides on my two horns but it requires some "adjustment" to get them to align properly. Also a note on how these horns play: The later Conn 14I baritone that was the standard student horn of the 50s and 60s is essentially identical to the bell-front Pan American. Conn quit making student model top-loader bell-up horns when they discontinued the 56I. However the 56I is generally constructed similar to the later 14I an 15I. I use mine for solo work because it has a very rich, sweet sound and plays remarkably well in tune. In most respects, it plays almost identically to my Conn Connstellation 24I, except it does not have the 4th valve or spring loaded tuning slide. If Conn were still making this horn, Yamaha/Weril/Jupiter would not own the student 3-valve Euphonium market.

2565 Trumpet Greer D Instrument
Reproduction Baroque Tromba di Tirarsiin D, after Hans Veit, Naumberg, circa 1690 by Dr Lowell Greer. The slide fits inside the first yard of the trumpet, and allows a drop in pitch of two whole steps, completing the trumpet range chromatically.The only deviations from the original model, are the positioning of the crook between the first two yards (the original had the crook set between the mouthpiece and the body of the horn), and a tapered leadpipe which brings the low overtones, flat on the original, into usefull tuning. The trumpet is built at A440, but can be played at A430 or A415 using transposing positions, or a low pitch leadpipe. The slide is grasped (by the ears) at the mouthpipe, and the rest of the trumpet is moved on the slide.

2784 Tuba DePrins Solist 22100 Instrument
Engraved: De Prins Bros Patented Antwerp Belgium Walter E Sear New York - NY A comment that was placed with the auction by Jack Kramer: The original imports Walter Sear brought in, during the late 50s and early 60s, from Belgium, were labeled either Mahillon, or DePrins, not DePins. A detachable bell-front bell was available. In the early 1960s, I was working with the Guy Lombardo band. I told Walter that I would not mind using a DePrins, but due to the front action valves, could not reach the music fast enough, and continued to use a Conn 24J, with top action valves, leaving the left hand completely free to find music with. Walter had the tubing modified just for me so that I could stick my left arm THROUGH the horn, right above the 2nd valve slide area. The instrument you see was so modified, as was the rest of the run of these tubas. The DePrins had much better response than the tubby Conn did, but Guy did not like either the silver finish or the somewhat smaller bell. Therefore I gave the DePrins back to Walter.

2910 Cornet Wurlitzer Instrument
Pryorphone: I am thinking maybe Frankenhorn, because that does not look like any Wurlitzer stenciled cornet valve block I have ever seen... gsmonks: That doubled-back section of brass looks very familiar . . . oh, wait! I have several of those! They are the Eb extensions that come with old mellophones! Except someone has lopped off a bit of the bottom arm. OLDLOU: After reading your comment per the old cornet pictured, I just had to get out my grandfathers Wurlitzer Improved Symphony cornet, also engraved in the bell logo as being made in Cincinatti,Ohio. The valve block looks to be the same, or very nearly so. The connector tubes from the first to the second valve casing, and from the second to the third are parallel to the leadpipe on mine, whereas, on the pictured cornet these tubes run at a slant upward. In all other ways the valve blocks look to be identical. As for the pictured horn being a "Frankenhorn", I doubt that. I think it to be authentic. What bothers me is the very shallow, tight crooks of the reverse "S" curve. I have several "S" curve cornets and all are more open in their curvature of the tubing. Pryorphone: It was the upward slanting connecting tubes which first caught my eye. This seems very similar (but not quite the same) as early Conn Wonders. The not-quite parallel mouthpipe ending with an A shank receiver seemed to clinch it for me, though. OLDLOU: Upon re examination, the reverse "S Curve" plumbing does look to be a replacement job. Having never seen a Wurlitzer Symphony cornet I have nothing to really compare this horn to. My "Improved Symphony" cornet is of the more common "Patern Anglaise" with the single continuous curve leadpipe, rather than the pictured reverse S Curve configuration. I can readily see that a common English Patern horn with a rotted out leadpipe could easily be converted to the S Curve design, rather than to try to bend a replacement single curve leadpipe. Your claim about using alto horn tuning slides and a straight mouthpipe does make sense. Perhaps the pictured horn is in fact a Frankenhorn done by someone with a good sense of how to make a decent repair.

2916 Cornet Conn 10A Artist 82067x 1959 Instrument
bell and leadpipe have Coprion finish. Not the earlier Victor model models built after 1958 have an adjustable 3rd slide finger ring, a wide wrap, a coprion leadpipe and topspring valves of a style common throughout the 1960s. This later model is styled after the 28A/38B Connstellation. The 1957 version of this instrument is called "Victor", while the 1959 instrument is called "Artist". Production on the 10A ceased probably sometime around 1961 when the 9A Victor (short model) was introduced. How to tell a 10A Victor long cornet and a 10B Victor trumpet apart? The differences are quite subtle. All models for which there is both a long cornet and a trumpet (6A/6B, 10A/10B, 28A/38B) have a letter "A" or "B" stamped on the mouthpiece receiver. On the cornet the leadpipe widens out to accommodate the main tuning slide. On a trumpet this happens directly after the leadpipe finger hook, on a long cornet about an inch further down the leadpipe from the fingerhook. Length 21 3/8in bell size 5 1/8in

2972 Cornet Stratton Eb Instrument
Kenton: Looks to me to be post Civil War. The Civil War Strattons I have seen were TARV.

Possibly a horn Stratton made while in Germany?

Pryorphone: My experience also. What can be seen of the makers badge looks like the New York Stratton badge, but I have never seen vertical valves with this kind of action. SATARV!? BARV!? (Bottom Action Rotary Valves)

Peter: The valve cluster is typical of instrument of the later half of the 19th century. However, there are indeed features that are not typical. The keys in the shape of coins rather than paddles are not typical. The superstructure holding the keys is not typical. The bent tubes is very unexpected. The extra trigger-like key (?) is also not typical. It is almost as if someone got hold of an instrument and altered it. Either that, or this horn is a Stratton experiemental instrument. More research is surely in order on this odd instrument.

Kenton: A couple of other opinions, I have collected

"Interesting the way he took a standard top action cornet(valved bugle) and made it side action." [The horn is similar to the CW vintage horns in that] . . bore size remains rather large, garland etc. All of the hardware is familiar to me as Stratton except the finger pads/mechanism. "

[Possibly] . . . this was done by another horn repair shop at a different time.

"Mechanical linkage?? That would support the German mfg. Wide bore bugle early E flat with the tuning vernier –odd with the way the valve tubing is arranged. Stratton would not have entered my mind if it had not been marked. He was usually much more refined in his bracing etc. These valves and levers almost look like an afterthought."

KimC: One thing that makes me wonder, and think this instrument was rebuild to its current appearence, is that appearently the first and third valve loops seems too long, compared to the second loop. As if he who rebuild the instrument, and added the 90° bends to the 1 and 3rd valve loops forgot to remove a similiar length of tubing that these angles make out.

Imagine that you remove thise angles, and put the loops back "in place". They would most likely get the right length compared to the second loop.

You would say that the player would notice such a mismatch! Do not wonder about anything! I have seen instrument that you would say impossible to play on - being played on. I know one case where a fella played a valve trombone, where the 3 rd valve was one of these that lowers two fulltones. When I told him, he just shrug his shoulders and sain "oh? I never noticed"

Pryorphone: On the other hand, the bells in the way of what would normal TARV action. Then again, is not the tuning slide microtuning adjustment usually to the bottom of the horn, not the side?

Kenton: It is in the normal SARV position, And the microtuner would go down.

Pryorphone: Yes, but if they were turned the normal way for side action (with the valve slide openings to the side) the valves are upside down, and the bell would then interfere with the opening and removal of the valves! (likewise any connection or adjustment!)

The bell bows do not leave any room for anything but overlap, either.

KinC: Often Germaninspired instruments have a soft S curve on the main pipe right in front of the third valve. That curve also goes a little "downwards" same time, making the distance to the bell larger, and allowing a good hold of theinstrument. And the vavles, if they were originally arranged for side action, would be accessible from both sides.

Smoothing that curve out would not be too dificult, and could be made without leaving tracks. The overall impression of the instrument looks like good craftmansship, except for the miscalculation of the altered valve loops.

It is still my opinion that this instrument did not leave the manufacturer the way it looks now. It then encountered a frankenhorn maker with good skills in metal working, but less in calculating. My guess....

Kenton: Wiwinn has provided more detailed pictures of the valves:

hornman: Actually, this is not a Frankenhorn--this is the way this horn was originally built and left the factory. I have seen two other virtually identical Strattons with this same valve cluster/key configuration. I had the opportunity to play one of them at the last Civil War Band Festival in Campbellsvill, KY in 1993. It was a very good player, and anyone who has played Strattons knows how inconsistent they can be. I believe it is from the 1870s; there may very well be a similar instrument in this image of Strattons exhibit at the 1876 Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia:

http://libwww.library.phila.gov/CenCol/Details.cfm?ItemNo=c021197

I think you will find that the valve tubes are the correct length (although they are pulled out a bit in the pics.) Overall a very unusual and interesting instrument, but by no means a Frankenhorn.

wardsd: Definitely not a Frankenhorn.

I own one exactly like this, only mine is Nickel.

2978 Cornet Buescher 122384 1922 Instrument
2nd valve casing is stamped LP C 15 freundtptcor: I noticed on the collars of all three valve slides is stamped Bb and on the insert part of each of these slides is stamped the number 34. The top main tuning slide has stamped "A" on the collar nearest the waterkey, while closer to the lead pipe end is stamped Bb on what appears to be an extension to the main tuning slide. Pryorphone: The "extension" stuck before the first slide (IF it can be removed) does look long enough to put a C cornet into Bb (it should be about the length of the first valve). And the brace from the 3rd slide looks like it was purposely put on after that part for a reason. The problem is, unless you got the slightly shorter 1st, 2nd and 3rd valve slides (which would be marked "C" rather than "Bb"), I am not sure it even makes any sense to see if the "extension" can be removed; the open notes will be in C, but all the notes that you use any valves for will be slightly flat (too long). "LP" means that the horn was built to modern A=440 pitch. The "15" is the model number. It IS a C/Bb/A cornet. The first tuning slide crook is marked goes with the Bb "H" section, but is marked "A" because, as you can see, there is a threaded rod attached to it which, when pulled out, put the cornet in A. But only the Bb section has the post through which it is threaded. My C/Bb/A Conns are very similar, so that when you take the Bb/A section out, it is replaced by a c crook which has no rod. This is so that you do not have to unscrew the nut off the end, and keep track of it until you put it back in Bb. But it IS the same size (the crook). If fact, if you follow the link and look at my silver Conn closely, you will see that the lowest slide has a stop rod on it (it was the Bb/A slide), while the postcard picture with it has the C slide in, without it. The valve slides are a bit more complicated. Rather than just pull them out, like you do on my Conns, you replace them. I would think that there would have been another set marked "C", to go along with the tuning slide. Bb to A is only a half step, so most often cornet players were just expected to lip the notes down that used any valve tubing. If you can get your cornet up to C, you may find that you can do something similar. You will have to try those notes, and see how far out they are. You may be able to tune up well enough. You can see that the connections only seem a little longer than they need to be, so I would say "try it". You may be fine. If not, it may just take a little modification of the 1st and 3rd slides to get it to play in C.

I just picked one up on eBay reconditioned to near-mint. [img]http://www.horn-u-copia.net/Docs/Gretsch-cornet.jpg[/img] The picture shows the horn in the "Bb" configuration. The picture Kenton posted shows the horn configured to "C". The two parallel slides are identical and each of the four fixed pipes are the same diameter and the same distance apart, center-to-center, both in the "horizontal" (though it is more of a 45-degree angle off-horizontal) and in the vertical plane. To change from Bb to C, both slides are pulled, and put back in so that they are parallel on a horizontal (roughly) plane rather than side-by-side and parallel in the vertical plane. As you can see in Kentons picture, the upper loop is closed and serves to store the extra slide while in the "C" configuration, so that one does not have to keep track of whether one has stored the slide in the case, or placed it somewhere else to be forgotten and lost. Pulling the slides out further allows one to play in A as well. The first and third tuning slide are marked with lines that are designated "Bb" and "A" as well. Interestingly enough, the third valve slide is the same pipe diameter and center-to-center distance as, and can be switched with, one of the twin slides, and with all the slides out full, the horn plays in "G", in tune, almost as if it were designed to do so. I have a friend who has a Getzen Eterna Severensen model trumpet who played this horn today and says it plays better than his horn, and the valves are faster and lighter. I have got a Super Deluxe Tone Balanced Getzen cornet whose valves feel much heavier than this horns valves as well. The instrument itself is very light in weight. Very sweet singing cornet tone, can comfortably be played very quietly as well. The restoration is near-perfect, it seems almost impossible that this horn is over 80 years old. The silver finish is not glossy, it has a sort-of-textured "matte".

3120 Cornet Wright Instrument
Engraved:Made by E.G. Wright & Co. Boston Length:12.5in Bell is 4.75in wardsd: This Bb EG Wright cornet is very interesting. Prior to it showing up on Ebay, nobody that I know had ever seen an EG Wright cornet with a single piece leadpipe. Does anyone know of any others? The significance to me, and the reason it came up before this cornet arrived on Ebay, is I own a 4-valve Bb EG Wright that clearly has had the single piece leadpipe replaced in a previous "restoration". I was getting ready to have this cornet restored, and returned to the "proper" two-piece leadpipe configuration. The only other examples I have seen, including the 4-valve in the Fiske museum, all have had the two-piece leadpipe. I know of one Boston 4-valve as well that has a two-piece leadpipe. However, with this Bb EG Wright, the entire horn appears to be original and is obviously a single leadpipe. The receiver and the receiver brace are very similar to this Bb so now I am unsure what the configuration should look like. pryorphone: I have never seen a Wright one piece that I noticed. When this one came up on eBay, I wrote it is condition off to previous restoration evidenced by the obvious bell cracks/crinkles behing ironed out and the finger catch on the bell being removed. wardsd: While I agree the cornet has had some minor work such as dent removal done to it (and what work was done was not done well, as evidence by the remaining ripples), It appears all parts are original. I won the cornet, and have inspected it up close, and I do not see even any evidence of resoldering. The missing finger hook is curious in that there appears to be an impression from it in the bell, but no solder remnants. I have not cleaned it yet so maybe there is some evidence under the grime. Overall this cornet is in exceptional original condition, at least to my eye. Only thing missing are the screws on the rotary valves. I will know more when Robb Stewart inspects it.

3169 Euphonium Besson Instrument
25 in tall This was an alternative to the compensating instruments and has two sets of tubing for each valve, one short one long. The mouthpipe leads into the 3rd.valve. If the 3rd. valve is not used, the windway leads through into the 1st. & 2nd. valves in the normal way, and back through the 3rd. to the bell. If the 3rd. is operated, the air goes through the 1st. & 2nd. valves including a tuning slide by a different route which involves longer loops of tubing (to play low notes in tune when the 1st.& 2nd. valves are operated along with the 3rd. The idea was that it is superior to the compensating system in that the windway is not required to pass through each valve more than once, and was incorporated on all instruments except the Soprano Cornet. The extra tubing added more weight which became a problem with tubas.

3179 Trumpet Higham Instrument
Jazzer: As a boy I had always wanted a trumpet. The Jazz greats - Armstrong, Berrigan, Charlie Shavers and the like, focused my attention. WW2 was on and horns were not available in NZ. A used Higham arrived at a Brass Band practice night and was offered for sale by the mother of a local soldier killed in the desert war in North Africa. I was totally enchanted by it and of course bought it. It played beautifully and I used it from age 16 to 25 years and took it with me to Japan when I was the Music Specialist in the NZ Army Education Service, British Commonwealth Occupation Forces. Could not find a better one to replace it in Japan at that time. Back home I bought a new Besson International, a good horn and sold the Higham to a High school student. My quest now is to find a good photo and any info on this old Higham. Sorry I can not remember the model or serial but it was distinguished by the unusual style of the bell tube running down the right side of the valves like a flugel and the mouthpiece pipe going directly into the first valve. Tuned out of the third valve into the bell. A beautifully engraved silver instrument . I have no close-up photo but will attempt one from a photo of me playing it when only a boy. I have never seen another horn like this and have ever regretted parting with it. If anyone has seen one of these or has details or a photo I would be greatly interested.

I believe this indicates the bore size. Bore on each slide .491/.506 Comment from reader: Just thought I`d throw this out there. I, too, have an Olds Golden Bear Model bone. And the serial number is the same as yours! I found 5029 on the tuning slide, and couldn`t find it else where on the horn. I know its an olds tuning slide, `cause the braces match. The actual slide however, is a diff. number.

NEUMANNS B PAT APRIL 11, 99. This is the "Duplex" indicator. It actually reads "J. Neumanns / A B / Pat April 11, 99". The "A" and "B" are the two ways the horn may be set (A and Bb). Unlike most surviving examples, the one above appears to have a working key change mechanism. The patent for this horn can be found at: CORNET (L&H Duplex) Patent number: 622820 Filing date: Aug 16, 1897 Issue date: Apr 11, 1899 Inventor: JULIUS J. NEUMANN It took some digging to find it, but the patent is essentially the same as the production model, and assigned to Lyon & Healy.

3331 Cornet King Improved Perfecto 13868 1930-5 Instrument
Pryorphone: I suspect that it is a forerunner of the design patent, since he does not actually claim anything but a description of the design, -but- Putting the tuning slide AFTER the valves like that would allow you to have a smaller effective bore, thus possibly speeding up the valves, and making the tuning slide more like a euphonium, trombone, or tuba; that is, a larger "duo bore". It also occurs that pehaps White wanted to increase the bore size, but wanted to use all the tooling and valve-sets that were in already place for the first version. Or it may be that Frank Holton patented the New Proportion design, forcing White to move the tuning placement. OLDLOU: This one looks to me to be a very sloppy thing to play. That "water valve" on the bell bow just has to make a mess on the musicians trousers when the water is blown out. Yuckkkk!!

3372 French Horn Piering 1882 to 19 Instrument
Robert Piering, Adorf. Germany AHe was mainly known for trombones "Usually when you see a 5-valved horn, the 5th valve functions as a stop valve or f extension, that is not the case here. The top and bottom valves operate at the same time using the same thumb lever! One valve is in front of the valve cluster, the other is after it, making this kind of a Kruspe/Geyer model. This horn stands in F, and plays just like any normal double horn."
3373 Cornet (anon) Instrument
Alleged to be "LeCompte" Pedigree on this horn is questionable. "This cornet was made by "Excelsior/Paris 1867" and originally presented to one of my namesakes, J.C. Richards, over one hundred years ago. The case was handpainted, probably by my great-grandmother LaVague, also from my Dads side of the family. My folks gave it to me in 1950 when I was 13 and in the 7th grade. I used it to earn first chair in the Duluth East senior band. Jeff R. Davis 1990"

3375 Trumpet Varsity Instrument
prinmancz: I Own the trumpet. It is made by Cleveland - Serial # C 956. IT IS LABELED: VARSITY USA ON THE BELL. IT IS FROM THE PERIOD 1919 to 1924 - pre- King... I also own a 1932 Cleveland made by king. Side by side they are virtually identical, same size, shape, etc. and the slides fit one another.... The only difference is the brace and the engraving. My "Varsity" with the serial # C 956 (if imported) would have had to have been imported by The Cleveland instrument Company. They were small and I do not know of them importing, but rather selling to King when they could no longer keep up the scale of instruments needed and were not able to grow for financial reasons. Then they sold to Mr. White and became part of the King Empire. As I said it is virtually identical to a serial # C 30843 Cleveland Trumpet I also own (and not that different from one I own in the C 3xx xxx range). I know there is a picture of it in horn-u-copia with the name of "Holton" in front of it, but this is not correct. Based on the serial number and the similarity to early Cleveland trumpets, it has to be a Cleveland. I had all my "Cleveland" slides in my "Varsity" last night (and vice-versa) with the exception of the tuning slide which is the same bore, but has a different radius, so only one side of the tubing will fit at a time...

3500 French Horn Boston 25505 1921-2 Instrument
Appears to be a later model, later than any recorded on Lars Krimsers list. It is not known when Boston started numbering instruments or at what date. As can be seen from the serial numbers, it was by 1886. The earliest number that Robb Stewart reports is 7397. There are a great many unnumbered instruments known. Most of these are with rotary valves, along with some piston instruments. The vast majority of numbered Boston instruments are with piston valves. The highest number that I know of is 25206."

3666 Trumpet; Bass Lidl Instrument
Engraved:Lidl Brno Length: 25.5 in length of the tubing: 111 in gsmonks: I own one of these: Lidl used to market it as a bass trumpet. It is in tenor Bb, but not all companies market these horns as bass trumpets. Some refer to this version as a tenor, and refer only to the horn with a trombone-size bell as the bass (possibly also having four valves and being pitched in C). The thing is, I have played a number of "bass trumpets" over the years, and I cannot consider this horn to be a bass trumpet. For one thing, these old Lidls are almost entirely conical. They begin with a conical lead-pipe, they are cylindrical through the tuning section, and then the whole rest of the tubing (about 6 ft 4in) is conical. I have found this with several "bass trumpets", that they are mostly conical. That makes them tenor or baritone cornets in my opinion, and they play like cornets! The tone is dark, the partials close-together, the flexibilities like a greased weasel which is very much unlike a cylindrical instrument. I have played what I consider to be real bass trumpets, and by contrast their tone is crisp, resonant and trumpet-like. They are also cylindrical horns. It is not a tenor horn, guys. The bell is not much bigger than a standard trumpet and the sound is nothing like Bb tenor horns, baritones, euphoniums, etc. These horns are often referred to as tenor trumpets, reserving the bass connotation for the horns with a trombone-size bell that are usually in C and often have four valves. There is a contrabass trumpet that is in a lower key again, F or Eb. Conn and a few other companies used to make an alto cornet in low F or Eb, so calling horns like this tenor cornets would be apt, I think. Again, the alto cornets have a bell the same size as a Bb cornet or only slightly larger. The Eb tenor (alto) horn is also often referred to as an alto cornet, especially in Europe, and many resources do list the Saxhorns as a family of cornets, but this is erronious- Saxhorns are not cornets. They are between cornets and true flugelhorns and are a taxonomic off-shoot of the bugle family (which is another reason why bugles are historically significant, BTW). There sure seems to be an utter lack of standardisation of bass trumpets! Every model I have looked at seems to be different from every other version. Some are almost entirely cylindrical, many are a liberal mix of profiles, and horns like mine are almost entirely conical. The proof of the pudding seems to come out in the high range- the 3rd octave, to be precise. Cylindrical, small-belled horns tend to sound distincly like regular trumpets in that range. My horn sounds like an old-style cornet up there with a big, fat, dark sound. No matter how hard I try for a martial sound, it sounds like I am going to break into the Coronation Street theme.

3702 Natural Horn Courtois Instrument
Engraved: Antoine Courtois | Brevete | Facteur Du Conservatoire | National | 8 Rue De Nancy | Paris Peter: The construction suggests an early date, or else the instrument was a medium-low priced instrument of later construction. One way to help determine the age is to provide a bit more information. Is the instrument solid brass, brass covered with silver, or brass covered with German Silver? Look for ware patterns on the instrument especially where the instrument is held. This is where you will find any ware through the metal plating (if any). In general, solid brass instruments are of an earlier design or as of about 1880, manufacturers would not bother to plate their student-quality instruments. I realize this is not much help, but with more information, perhaps we can provide better information. Also, Courtois is a family of makers active between the late 1700s and mid to late 1800s. The lack of "made in France" or similar phrase indicates the horn was either made before 1893, or was intended for use in France. If that is the case the 1893 date does not apply. In short, there is no real way to tell, unless the owner can: 1. Describe the quality of the instrument. A professional instrument would likely date from the mid 1800s. A student instrument could date from as late as the early 20th century 2. Describe the metal used to make the instrument (brass, german silver, or silver) 3. Provide any additional information about additional parts, such as crooks (extra tubing that might or might not survive)

3733 French Horn Reynolds Pottag 27094 1957 Instrument
John Ericson, in his blog, was talking about the Reynolds Pottag French horn, He said it was introduced in the 1940s and was produced until 1961. In the early stages of the Reynolds Double Horn, Reynolds contracted Max Pottag, long-time second horn with the Chicago Symphony to promote sales of the new horn. By the mid 1940s, Reynolds was marketing their double horn as the Pottag Model. In 1947, Pottag retired from the CSO after 40 years of playing and began teaching at Northwestern. Max Pottag The Reynolds Double French Horn is a most sensitively responding instrument and has an unusually easy-speaking upper register - so important to Horn players. Its wondrous tone quality, complete even range and sureness is noteworthy. I am using it exclusively, love it and I am happy indeed to recommend it to any French Horn player. John says it has a good upper register, and the intonation is a bit squirrely but manageable. It is pretty responsive but the strength of this horn would seem to me to be the tone. It has a very nice sound, they did get something really right about the bell and tapers and metal thickness and temper. He also told of a 2008 test conducted by Ken Pope at the IHS Denver horn workshop. When the reviewers did not know what horn was being played, they loved the tone, but when they found out it was a Reynolds, they hated it!

3741 Cornet Buescher 65 pre 1904 Instrument
Engraved: Made By | The | Buescher | Mfg. Co. | Elkhart | Ind Length: 13 Bell: 4 7/8in Not being an Epoch horn, I will assume that # 65 could have been made from 1894 on. The leather case that accompanies it certainly looks like the horn is in pretty original condition, and all of the cornets advertised in the Buescher Mfg Co materials have mouthpipe shanks, while all of the cornets advertised in my 1909 Buescher BIC True-Tone have fixed mouthpipes. I will agree that the valve tops and bottoms certainly resemble Buescher instruments of a slightly later period, and the ones on my cornet are of a much finer level of detail. Recently there was a BBIC Epoch No. 1 horn for sale on "that auction site" that clearly had a valve bottom substituted from a later horn, while the remaining one next to it was original.

3761 Trumpet Buescher No 5 Epoch 14930 1911 Bb/A Instrument
Patented in Mich. in 1919 Pryorphone: The No. 5 trumpet has the Epoch system. In addition to the high 2nd valve slide, you can also see that the bell tubing exits from the 2nd valve on the other side. I assigned it to 1911 based on Lars Kirmsers serial number chart from the number given. I have no idea idea of any Buescher patent in 1919. The Epoch valve system was 1901, "Multi-Pitch Tuning" was 1906, and the "Split-No-Tone Bell", which was on their trumpets and cornets into the 20s was 1907, so I have no idea where the 1919 date comes from.
3762 Cornet Buescher 3 Instrument
Patent date 1901 Pryorphone: The No. 3 is the New Long Model Cornet, taken from matching the wraps and details to the horn. The 1901 patent is for the Epoch valve system. It only had unequal valve depths for the No. 1 Cornet. For all of the other horns they made and used it on (including other cornets) it had equal depth valves. You can tell that this horn has the Epoch valve system because the 2nd valve slide is high and faces forward.

Comments on the ad: Conn really made their doubles popular with their copy of the 1939 Kruspe, this is different. The braces are the same as the Schmidt copy Conn made in that era I wonder if this is a "6D" model, pre Stagliano model, not Schmidt model. Whatever the case may be, I too have never come across one of these. If conn was copying german horns, perhaps this is a Wendler Kruspe or Alex 102 copy.

3841 Trombacello Graves Instrument
Kenton: The valves on the instrument are Vienna Valves. One finger operates two valves at the same time. They were a transitional instrument between the keyed ophicleides and the saxhorns. I am not sure on pitch, but since they replaced ophicleides, I would think it is likely in C or Bb since that was the common pitches for ophicleides. Graves was a US maker, and trombacellos were used in this country. I had seen references to them in the literature, but it took me a long time to find a picture of one. I suspect it did not play that well, but that was probably just a matter of development and refinement. And, I suspect that it is likely that if Sax had not popularized the saxhorn family of instruments, it likely would have been the ancestor for the baritone and bass brass voices.

3950 Sousaphone Conn 80117 1903 BBb Instrument
Bell Collar 9.75in. Bell: 30in Kenton: It looks to me like a 40k, but it is too early. The listings on the Conn Loyalist provide dates based on when Conn started using a numbering system. In any case, it is the earliest date-able bell-forward sousa we have. There is a 10 stamped in the bell collar (no K) and is probably just to mate the bell and the body. And, it plays about 15 cents flat. Pryorphone: The Pepper/"raincatcher" was built c.1892 The Conn version 1898. I suspect this is, in fact, an early Conn bell-forward. Note that the bell collar of an early Conn is reversed from this: http://www.xs4all.nl/~cderksen/ConnSousaphone1898image.html This one LOOKS orginal (from here) because of the brace going up. The flatness just verifies the early-20th date, the horn was likely built to the former (A=135) international standard, as was my Conn double-bell euphonium. Since it was built to the early international std. (and not "high"), I would suspect it was made for a professional touring group, like Sousas, and perhaps special order, which is probably why they also made the forward bell so early. Kenton: It appears to me that this horn has undergone some modifications. It has a lacquered bell, and at this point I am assuming that underneath is a silver bell, that has been altered so that it would look like other sousas in a section. I can not imagine that anyone would lacquer over a gold wash, but who knows. (unless it was damaged) And, if the durn thing is not heavy enough, there is a lot of protective ribs on it. 3 to the outside and one on the front profile, and probably one on the back profile as well. Original? Pryorphone: There WERE Conn horns made with a similar protective rib reinforcement. Bell diameter? Kenton: 30 inches, and it does have the "after-ring" effect. And, the bell collar is even larger than the 40k by 3/8" Pryorphone: Sounds like a 48K or pre-48K Conn BBb Jumbo. If the serial number is correct, my guess is that they made it for a professional touring group (like Sousas) to the "old" internation standard pitch. Pryorphone: The bell engraving, at least, is later than the serial number. "Conn, Ltd" did not begin until 1915.

musoniusrufus: Is this the same one I have seen in the Travelers Club Restaurant and Tuba Museum in Okemos Michigan? It is the only place I have ever seen a Distin DB. They seem to be very rare. Kenton: Yep, that is the one. It is the only one I have seen also. Lew: Jim Webster owns a Distin 5 valve double bell euphonium, which I believe did not come from that museum, so there is at least one other out there.

4110 Cornet King Super 20 Master 505319 1970 Instrument
Engraved: KING SUPER 20 MASTER, KING MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS USA OLDLOU: Are we to assume that King went back to a non micrometer adjustable tuning slide and added a first valve trigger on this model after my Super 20 Master Model # 3869XX was built, and photos of which I have sent to you? The subject pictured cornet "looks" to be a much older instrument than mine, even though the serial number says otherwise. Pryorphone: If it is true, it certainly would not be the first time that a manufacturer built and sold older and newer models side-by-side (sometimes even on the same line!)

4112 Sousaphone Miraphone Instrument
Mirafone 1373 Pryorphone, quoting TubeNet: "That is a tuba built for the old California "Mirafone" distributors by someone else. It is substandard to Miraphone standards. The valve section does not look like Miraphone work, does it? No. That is the giveaway." With the "f", the horn is American made, 1373 = pre-1960, and the and all the Miraphone instruments that I am familiar with DO NOT have clockspring valves. It makes perfect sense that perhaps a Czech manufacturer made the valves, which were then fitted to a Sousaphone body in California. Certainly, sousaphones were NOT required in Europe.. KimC: I must agree to Pryorphones arguments. While the sousaphone has begun to make its way in Europe now, it was rare in the pre 60s, and the Sousas that might have been found in Europe would have been imports from abroad. That valve section looks oh-so-European, and exact similiar valve sections of the same kind can be found in a wide variety of tubas and helicons over here. Of-two-bad-make-one-good repairs where the crafman does not look at maintainong the instrument in its original appearence, but the main thing is to get a playable instrument have been common ever since... Repairmen of today may have got more focus on maintaining prominent makers instruments as original as possible, but in an orchestra sort of playable instruments this question may still not be asked. Collectors would not do such things, but things look different out in the orchestras. 20 years ago most repairmen I knew gave heck in manufacturers, and brands, and just did what they could to get something playable out of it. The results may be very original and profressional looking, a good craftsman could do such a repair (with proper parts available) so that it looks as if it never looked different. It is my guess that this explains why tha tsousa looks like it does, of course things would look different if it proves that there are more instruments of the same kind around out there.

4139 Cornet Frank B iltmore 111881 Instrument
OLDLOUL: Made in Varington, Ill. Equal to Martin Committee and has same unusual wrap that Olds used on his Special, having the main tuning slide extending forward from the short curved leadpipe. This tuning slide is formed in a sharp curve, making it look like an additional third valve tuning slide. I just discovered that my Wm. Frank Biltmore cornet is built on the same unusual wrap as the pictured American Prep cornet pictured on this site. The major differences, as far as I can tell from the picture is that my Biltmore has nickel plated tuning slides, including the curve of each slide. The bracing from the valve body to the leadpipe and to the bellpipe are nickel sheet stock. Likewise the tube to tube bracing of all of the outer slide tubes is nickel sheet stock. This looks much like what Getzen did on their mod. 80,90, and Super Deluxe trumpets and cornets.

OLDLOU: I have in my posession two Couturier instruments. Both of these look like trumpets, but, one was made with a cornet size receiver and leadpipe, while the other uses a common trumpet mouthpiece. In most other ways they are the same, both lacquered over gold plate, and the trumpet version has a bit less hand engraving than the cornet version, which has full circle engraving on the bell. I play the trumpet version regularly in a community concert band. It is spectacular.

Pryorphone: Langwill has no "F. Courtiere, Paris" or anywhere else, so it looks like he may have been trying to trade off the "Couturier" name. The Pepper portion looks like any other of his horns, so I would guess that they just added the "Courtiere" (much like the "Mouchel", or the "remaining stock" of Hillyard that Pepper "invested too much equipment and tools to produce" and so sued Hillyard for the use of his name after he left Pepper. The "Courtiere" looks stamped (as is the rest of the Peppers info), and not engraved.

4213 Trumpet Boosey-Hawkes 129450 1926 Instrument
mdb: If Boosey & Hawkes merged in 1930 in London of (Thomas) Boosey & Co (founded 1816) and (William) Hawkes & Son (founded 1865), how is it that I possess a "Boosey & Hawkes" stamped Imperial Class A which predates the conception of the Boosey & Hawkes company? If my information is wrong, please inform me of the correct history, but I am not sure how this is possible unless the trumpet was manufactured and stamped with the serial number 129450 (year: 1927) and then later engraved and sold in 1930 after the two companies merged. That seems far fetched, but the serial number indicating the manufacture date does not align with the history of the company. Pryorphone: I do not know British intruments that well, but it seems logical that the companies had some dealings together before they merged. I have looked at some of the low brass sites to confirm that Imperial WAS a B&H trademark, and that it was used on their first line instruments. krax: I am by no means any expert but the general appearence of this trumpet, well 1927 does not feel right. It looks younger! And it is a little french styled, the pinky ring and the braces seem to be Selmer influenced and I believe that copying Selmer looks became interesting after Louis Armstrong started playing Selmer. I have not seen any pinky ring like this one on any other B&H I have seen on the net, not on older ones nor younger ones. Suppose the serial number is wrong, that it should be 229450 instead of 129450, that the engraver did wrong. 229450 puts it at 1959 and by looks on your pictures that feels more right. And yes, you can take that it was a pro model. Actually, since there seem to be very few of them around, maybe the Imperial trumpets were some kind of custom made instruments? Since B&H focused on the brass band market and trumpets and british brass band are polars maybe they did not have any real trumpet mass production first line before the Sessionair (which came in the beginning of the sixties I believe), just made those Imperials on demand? I just have not heard of any Imperial trumpet line, that is why make this speculation. mdb: I have now found out that it was purchased from a professional jazz player just over 21 years ago (he was 71 years old at the time of sale) and that he played in places such as San Fransisco, LA, New Orleans, and Las Vegas. Apparently, the majority of his playing was in Las Vegas and he did a lot of solo work aside from the bands he played in. We cannot remember his name, but my father is going to try and locate a name and see what else he can dig up on the guy. Sometimes a history to go with the instrument can make it worth more to a collector. He could have been anybody and played with anyone. I received a reply back from Horniman Public Museum & Public Park Trust in London very early this morning and this is what he had to say... The serial number is not for the instrument itself but for the valves. Valves were constructed as a separate process to the assembly of the actual instrument, often in large numbers. The 16, 17 and 18 stamped on the valves of your instrument indicate they were part of a batch of 24 or possibly 48. The instrument itself should have a serial number, perhaps as part of the bell engraving. The date given for the valves in the records is 18th November 1946, and the instrument was probably made soon after this. The record for the valves also says they are for an Imperial trumpet in low pitch (ie A=440), model No. 4, Class B4015. And the workmans name was Makepeace. If you can find a serial number for the instrument itself, we will probably have a separate record for it with similarly detailed information. I found another serial number 168089 which puts the trumpet in the 1946-47 era and coincides with the date of the valves. The trumpet was ordered from the Edgware factory by the Regent Street head office on 25th August 1947 as one of a batch of 12. The serial number of the valves is recorded (as stated earlier). The instrument is described as a Bb trumpet F.V.A. [?] LP [low pitch] Lacquered model B4015. The instrument was completed on the 11th December 1947. The maker’s name was Sheridan. It is a Line Production (?).

Engraved: R. WUNDERLICH, MAKER, CHICAGO Bell: 8.5in of German thin gauge red brass. Because of the thin bell, a brass reinforcement strip is on the under side bell seam to provide support if a mute is used. never lacquered. Before WW1, Trombones were mostly small bore/bell of French/English style. German makers moved to larger bore/bells. This horn was of the German style, and became a prototype for Conn, introduced on the 78H. German instrument maker Richard Wunderlich operated a brass instrument shop in the Chicago area during the 2 decades prior to WW1. He was assisted by apprentice Carl Geyer. Wunderlichs shop closed after WW1, as he was associated with C.G. Conn post war.

4300 Trumpet Orpheum Supreme Instrument
"FA Buescher formed a new company after he left. Buescher with Harry Pedler and made some really interesting and great playing horns for a short time and then passed away. This is one of those horns. They made many stencil horns that were made from some Buescher parts and some of theirs. This is marked as ORPHEUM SUPREME. They have many cool features! Ive had a couple so far under Gretsch and Lyons Band Inst names which have heavy metal, extra heavy rings on each slide and they played really well but this one has other very cool features. It is a balanced model, valves further forward. Also the bell taper is different and must have been modeled after a Committee as it has a very gentile taper." Bore: .450

4327 Euphonium New Yorker Instrument
Height: 28in Bell: 11in Mineral Man: I can find very little about New Yorker branded instruments, except for a reference to a Gretsch New Yorker trumpet. It has no other markings, other than 1 2 3 on the valve bodies. It weighs about 6 lb, and seems to be made of fairly heavy stock. Valves are virtually unworn, and the instrument plays quite well, with decent intonation. It is a low pitch instrument, right on at 440 with all slides fully in. In looking further into this morass of this New Yorker euphonium, I have put together this comparison of it and two other instruments. The most interesting linkage is the one to the New York Instrument Company horn. It appears to me that all three were made by the same maker, if not at the same time. Since the two earlier catalog entries are no doubt stencils, probably imported from Czechoslovakia, my guess is that mine is, as well. Note the overall design, with the long post-valve-body main tuning loop with no brace, the design of the receiver tube, and the placement of the braces on the horn, along with the location of the water key. The overall layout of the horns and the shape and orientation of the second valve tubing are also clues, I think.

Engraved: Henry Distin | Importer | for | J.W. Pepper | Phila and N.Y. | No 1129 Bell: 8in Length: 29.5 in Bore: .463 Pryorphone: At this time Distin was in Philadelphia, too! According to Arnold Myers, Boosey was trading under their own name during the early 1880s (but still with the Distin trademark), so I doubt that it is a Boosey horn. Pepper was just looking to trade off of Distins established name, as was Boosey with the Distin trademark. Peppers own Philadelphia horns are marked quite differently. Recall, also, that Pepper sued Hillyard for using his own name in the US when Pepper said that he had invested too much money to build instruments that were being sold as the "remaining Hillyard stock" It really does not say ANYTHING besides "FOR/ J.W. PEPPER", just as the later horns said under the Pepper name. I am postulating that Pepper could not sue for the use of the Distin name, because Distin had already sold it to Boosey. Which is why I included it here, because I thought that it likely belonged as the first entry on your Pepper serial list. It is way below the Boosey/Distin numbers, is not marked as an American Distin, and with the "Pepper/Phila. and N.York" marking, fits nicely in the Pepper sequence.

Image used courtesy of Horncollector.com This is the very first version of the Epoch No 1 Cornet, that had the 1st and 3rd valves of equal length. One can see that loosening the 1st valve bottom cap might be difficult in this configuration, which prompted Buescher to lengthen the first valve casing so that the bottom cap was BELOW the tubing.

4529 Trombone Conn 88H 418xx Instrument
Colin: The Conn 88H is marketed as an orchestral tenor trombone although it may have had a bass trombone role early in its history due to its large bore .547". This model has been in production since the 50s and remains one of the most popular trombones for orchestral tenor trombonists. There were minor changes (in the 80s I think): string valve linkages to mechanical linkages, spring slide buffers replaced by cork, the Remmington leadpipe was replaced by one compatible with other brands (eg Bach). There are more options available now such as bell material. I do not think you should remove it as the original pre-70s Elkhart made Conn trombones (especially 88H) are still seen as the benchmark by which orchestral large bore trombones are judged. Custom trombones by smaller producers are described by to what extent they are similar to Conn 88Hs or Bach 42Bs

4558 Trumpet Mahillon 545 Instrument
Bore: .390 Biber: How does it play? Intonation? Keeferman: The intonation is about as good as any decent quality Bb trumpet made today, with the first slide saddle (ring in this case) being used on the normally out of tune notes. One would think that the lack of conical tubing in the leadpipe would cause drastic intonation issues, but this does not seem to be the case except in the extreme low register where the notes do become a little stuffy and slightly flat. The valve depression is very shallow at .535 inch, which makes fast passages a little easier, but the pistons are just brass with no plating, and I have not found a valve oil that will work well for very long. Actually, playing this trumpet is a little like playing a piccolo trumpet in that the upper register is a little easier (and quite bright), and the blow is very different from a normal Bb trumpet which takes a while to get used to. Biber: Forgive my skepticism but are you certain that there is no conicity in the lead pipe? Are you basing this on an external cylindrical profile or have you checked this internally? the reason I ask is because several american made instruments have leadpipes that are cylindrical on the outside but are indeed tapered on the inside. Keeferman: It is very difficult to measure (without very sophisticated gauging equipment) the bore taper of a tube. I can tell you that the outside diameter is actually .015 larger at the mouthpiece receiver end than at the tuning slide end, but this tells us very little about the inside. If you have ever cleaned the barrel of a shotgun for example, when you slide the tightly fitting swab down the barrel from the breech towards the muzzle, you can "feel" the choke. When I clean the leadpipe on my trumpets, I use an old clarinet swab which fits snugly when started from the tuning slide end, and it gets much tighter as it approaches the receiver. Not so on this instrument. While this may not be the scientific answer you were looking for, I can tell you that I feel no difference at all when I clean the leadpipe on this trumpet from end to end. If there is any taper, it must be quite minimal compared to any other trumpet that I have ever encountered (and Ive seen hundreds). If I happen to stumble upon a household item that is either cylindrically or spherically the exact diameter necessary to properly gauge this tube, Ill post the results here. In the meantime, I have to maintain that I can detect no taper to this leadpipe. Mahillon instruments are very difficult to research because there is almost no information available. Even if a serial number list were available, it would do me no good because there is no serial number on this instrument. No numbers at all in fact, not even 1,2,3 on the valve casings. I can only guess that because the engraving is very much in the art deco style, that it was made somewhere between 1920 and 1935(which was the end of the original Mahillon factory as far as I know). If there is a Mahillon expert out there somewhere, I would appreciate any help that you could offer. Ive finally found a way to accurately gauge the leadpipe on this instrument, and it is indeed a perfectly straight tube. In the process I found that my estimate of .395 was a bit generous, as I measured the bore to actually be only .390 inch. I was concerned for a while there as it seemed to have a slight tight spot just below the mouthpiece receiver, but then I noticed a very shallow dent on the outside of the pipe at that point which accounts for the tightness there. While I suspect that the inadequacies Ive described earlier in the extreme low register on this Mahillon are most likely the result of the straight leadpipe, it actually plays quite normally from middle C on up. Biber: Yikes thats a small bore!! the intonation anomalies of the low register are to be expected with a cylindrical leadpipe. Now if only we can attribute an accurate date for it. This is all very interesting and quite unexplainable in my opinion, given that Mahillon was such noted acoustician. keeferman: I agree. I cant really believe that Victor Mahillon designed this instrument. It must have been made after his death in 1924. One possible explaination could be that it was an experimental "piccolo" trumpet made by the company in Bb length intended to be played only in the upper register, thus allowing "normal" fingerings for non piccolo notated music. Well probably never know for sure, but it certainly is a very odd trumpet to say the least.

Although, I do not know that you really want to do it, it could be converted to Bb, by lengthening all the tuning slides. I would guess that it dates to the late 1800s. Pryorphone: If it has the 1855 medal, but not the 1862 London engraving (or any of the many later awards that covered the Courtois instruments), that would imply that it was made between 1855-1862 But it does not look that old. It does not look it in configuration, either. I could also be convinced that perhaps only the bell is older. Certainly early Courtois valve instruments did not have the serial number on the outside of the valve casing, but engraved on the inside of a valve cap.

The timbre was that of the 821 F; not the same as, say, a Gronitz PCK. It takes some getting used to, fingerwise, but its a pretty good idea for fluid fingering in that range.

GSMonks: This is an F/Eb mellophone-hybrid instrument built in the fashion often refered to as a tenor cor, because of the use of trumpet/cornet valves, cylindrical tubing, braces, water keys and lead-pipe. One notable feature is the flare of the bell, which is a departure from the usual funnel shape, and more resembles that of the modern marching mellophones made by companies like Bach, Yamaha and Kanstul.

4917 Trumpet Pelitti Instrument
Vienna valves Tubaron: Anybody got a guess on its key? Range--bass? Must be a nightmare to drain water from it. Pryorphone: I will take a shot... Eb/D/C/Bb (?) Tubaron: This is a multiple choice exam?...It appears to me it is continuous tubing from the mouthpiece right into valve 3, so I do not see how it could be multiple keys. The total tubing looks so much longer than a standard Bb, that is why I wonder it is pitched lower (fifth, octave?), thus maybe a bass? But the tubing diameter is fairly small. And what about those valve? Are there paddles on the far side? Or do the parts we can see push down (like the little parts between the upright tubes). What are they called? Pryorphone: The valves are called Vienna valves, and they would have plungers on the far side. I based my guess on the apparent bore/valve tubing length, and I think that each complete turn on the mouthpipe would be a removable crook, all adding up to a Bb length. Tubaron: I can see a junction in the lead pipe just beyond the first loop. Sure wish the photo were higher resolution. This would be a good time for bastrompet to chime in with some additional info. Bastrompet: The only extra info I have got is the total length is 42 in. I do not know if that is with or without mp. I took the original pic to photoshop and to me it seems the first 3 loops can be taken off. Tubaron: Individually? or as a 3-loop unit? Looking closer at the tubing for valves 1 and 3, and at the size of the mouthpiece, I posit that this is a valve trombone. The valve tubings are very similar to those on an antique Italian tenor horn currently on ebay, thus my conclusion. Given the overall length of 42 in, this certainly could be in the range of a tenor trombone. Bastrompet: I think individualy. I think you always need the first loop for the mp receiver. Pryorphone: But do not forget that baroque/classical trumpets were also in that range!

Can anyone attribute actual bore sizes to the designations 0, 0-, 0½, and 1 bores? 0, as I have been told is probably .459" Pryorphone: With my 128th" vernier caliper, using the ID of the #2 inner slide, I get: "0": 0.453" (1912 "Couturier Model/New Proportion") "0 1/2": 0.461" (1915 "Made By" (same wrap as New Proportion)) Joe440: The tuning slide brace appears to be original, judging from the plating between the brace and the slide. The water key on the main slide was replaced at some point as the base is diamond shaped, not oval as on the third valve key, and you cae the original (unplated) water key mark on the main slide.

Meazzi was a manufacturer of guitars and a distributor under own trademark of guitars, drums, other musical instruments and amplifiers made by stencil makers. 1950 - 1963: The Meazzi brothers manufactured guitars in Sicily. 1963 - 1969: They worked in Milano and began to distribute other instruments too, under their own name, for example the innovative and well renowned Meazzi Hollywood drum set. 1969 - ?: They have been distributors of entry level instruments and general agents for for example Marshall amplifiers.

5055 Wagner Tuba Schediwy Instrument
Interesting discussions going on in this auction: this item is neither a Baritone Horn, nor a Euphonium nor a Tuba. It should be called a Wagner Tuben, and appears to have a tenor (Baritone) shank. Schediwy allowed the company in Ludwigsburg to use his name, though he had long departed Germany. its construct is similar to Cerveny and Mirafone Tuben style models manufactured today. Althoguh the instrument is commonly sold, it is not commonly used except for Wagner orchestral work. If this is played right handed it is a Bariton Horn and not a Wagner Tuba which are left-handed! Hello, This appears to be played with the Right hand and seems to have a mouthpiece receiver for a larger shank mouthpiece than the french horn mouthpiece. Is it possibly a European style rotary baritone or tenor horn?

I think they had ideas of what they wanted, they wrote their music and marketed all that they could. And Thomas, Harvey and the two Allens all made a business of anything surrounding music, from writing music and books to teaching dancing. And, I believe they supplied instruments. This horn appears to me to be a Stratton. Pryorphone: My thoughts, exactly. The construction, and even the shield look like a Stratton that I had previously

Seller states that this cornet has 2 Stoelzel and 1 Périnet valve. Engraved: MAISON SOUCHETTE ANGERS who apparently was a deal. Possibly a GAUTROT. Length: 34cm Bell: 11.5cm.
Pryorphone: The Stölzel valve does, indeed port to the bottom. While the center valve is probably a proper Périnet valve, the outer valves can only be of a modified Stölzel-type which may, in fact, use right-angle porting, but at least twice as many as a normal Stölzel. My guess would be that the maker thought to use these "improved" Stölzel valves, but found that they needed an actual Périnet to connect them...

5458 Trumpet Frank Artist 11892 1945+ Instrument
jimmyfrank: I just wanted to say that i took the trumpet out this morning and,looked it over in the sunlight and,i cannot believe the engraving on this wm. frank - ARTIST MODEL - trumpet. it has a log cabin,with smoke curling out of the chimney. the cabin is sitting beside a rolling stream. the cabin and,stream are in the valley,WITH A MOUNTAIN RANGE IN THE BACKGROUND. WITH WHAT LOOKS LIKE EAGLES,SOARING OVER THE MOUNTAINS. Grin How did this work.did these companies have engravers on staff. Does more elaborate engraving,signify a better grade of instrument. Does artist model mean,pro level trumpet. i see you said that it looks like the valves were done by blessing.was that a good thing back when this horn was made.because the valves are in tremendous shape,as are the sleeves. Kenton: It would be good to know more about the engraving process. Some was automated. And, some was pressed in rather than actually engraved. And, of course there was the hand engraving. Krax: I believe some were etched too. If an engraving has very smooth edges I guess it really is an etching jimmyfrank: I went to borodis,just to get the mouthpiece pulled and,i ended up leaving it with george for a complete overhaul / restoration. I think that george thinks its more related to a holton than a blessing. Because looking at the pictures on the net,i thought that the FRANK ARTIST MODEL - looked an awful lot like the blessing artist and,super artist,models. But george looked and,said holton family,but a lot of these chicago horn makers were interrelated.my limited googling skills had led me to that opinion also. Kenton: Frank would have some of the Holton methods, if not actual parts from Holton, since he once worked there. But it is also alleged that Blessing made some of the valves for Holton. So, it is very possible that they are intermingled.

Bastrompet: This is a Ernst David Kuhlohorn. I bought it from the German Ebay and after cleaning the valves and slides and mouthpiece it is now playable and I must say the Germans are right it has a beautifull sound. I compared the Mp with modern MPs and it seems the cup is more or less the same but the shaft (the original David MP is the one in the middle) is as thick as a Bach Trumpet MP. So I have to try it on a trumpet to.

5921 Alto Horn Castelan Instrument
Enrico Castelan Tubaiing: There looks to be way to much tubing to be an alto. I vote F Tuba Kenton: It is always hard to get a perspective on these pictures when there are not dimensions. The valves do look small for an alto, but the bell tubing is awfully narrow for a tuba. Tubaron: I agree not an alto, but disagree with F tuba. With the general tubing size (diameter), I vote for Bb baritone (not euph), or valve trombone. Batrompet: Strange thing with this horn is its overall bore wich makes it look more like a Trombone in tuba form. I chose for Altohorn because to me the second valve slide looks so short it made me think Eb. Pryorphone: I am inclined to agree with Tubaron, but Kentons absolutely right, scale is very hard to figure without any reference...

6006 Fluglehorn Sonore Bb Instrument
Bastrompet: his is a Sonore Fluglehorn. Engraving reads Sonore Firma W.K. van der Glas Heerenveen Serial #120. This horn is from between 1950-1960. I had contact with v.d. Glas and they told me they never made horns themself so all the Sonore instruments are stencils. Funny thing about this Flugle is that although 25 years younger than the Verreijt Flugle it is almost identicall. I can even exchange the valve slides. The valves are different and as you can see on the Verreijt Flugle the leadpipe is going straight through the valves. So I think Verreijt made the Fluglehorns for van der Glas.

"The ‘double principle’ system was a variant of the ‘enharmonic’ system of compensation. Most compensation systems have been designed to operate from the third or fourth valve. This system compensates from the first valve. Valves two and three have two alternative sets of tubing, one shorter and the other slightly longer. If the first valve is not employed, then valves two and three will use their shorter branches. However, when the first valve is in use, the second and third valves will re-route to their longer branches to compensate. "

Made in France Yorkie: Bore is c. 0.459, bell diameter 4 5/8. Raw brass (there wasn’t much laquer left). I got into a long debate a while back on Trumpet Herald on post-war French Bessons, particularly whether they were made in France or England, but it was inconclusive. The valves are very similar to my International (see my post in English Bessons), but not interchangeable. You can see from the bell inscription that it says ’Made in France’, so I tend to believe it was. Quote from the Horniman Museum Boosey and Hawkes archives (there is a thread on this in the B & H section): 6. BESSON (PARIS) ARCHIVAL DOCUMENTS (1941-1972) 6.1 STOCK BOOK 1 Stock Book (E82.163) A227/208 Stock of brass instruments in chronological rather than serial number order, written in French. Serial numbers: 86825 – 103908, Feb 1966 – c Jan 1972. This would date my Brevette to probably 1971

6329 Cornet Grey 1910s Instrument
Echo KimC: his bb Echo cornet was made by John Grey, with the supplement "Made in French factory" Not much appears to be known about John Grey, except that his company primarily made mandolins, but also had some productions of other kind of instruments, these being mainly rather short lived productions. When I got it, the echo part was missing. Probably been removed because it does not allow the left hand to get a comfortable hold on the instrument. Funny enough, the A and Ab shanks were still to be found in the probably original case. With the background of wear marks in the case, "scents" on the instrument itself, and the knowledge of how long this echo parts tubing would need to be, the reconstruction of a new echo device was possible
6330 Mellophone Holton Instrument
gsmonks: If you examine the bells of certain mellophone instruments, you will see a large joint near the bell where the bell is held on by means of a threaded cuff. Turning the cuff unscrews the bell for removal, and in certain cases the bell was stored, as in this instance, in a case refered to as a "hatbox", as the fashion of the day was for women to store their hats in similar fashion for travel. While hardly an innovation ("French" horns and other instruments with removeable bells had been around since the 19th century) it is noteworthy that such care went into the manufacture of what today is thought of as a cheap, student-model substitute for the "French" horn. It must be remembered that until circa 1940, mellophone and related instruments were a staple of the professional musician. VegasGeorge: I am the owner of a Hat Box Mellophone. It is engraved on the bell "Collegiate made by Frank Holton &Co Elkhorn Wis." The serial number is stamped on the 2nd (middle) valve casing, "109916." That indicates the horn was produced in 1931. All parts of the instrument appear to be original, and it is entirely intact. I had a couple of minor dents removed. It still has a small ding in a section of hard to reach tubing where the mouthpiece was apparently dropped on it. I play the instrument every now and then. It actually plays quite well. I am not a collector, but I intend to keep it just for the fun of playing it. I find the transposing slide system most fascinating. The main tuning slide is actually two slides, a slide in a slide if you will. The short length renders F and the two slides together produce Eb. Then there are the slide extenders you can see in the photograph. They lower the pitch by 1/2 step (as I recall), so you have the possibility of an E or a D horn depending on the main slide configuration.

Henry G. Lehnert, who built instruments in Philadelphia, produced several new instruments for the 1876 Centennial. Most notable were his baritones and tubas, which rested on top of ones shoulders facing forward, and his valve trombones, which featured side action rotary valves and a curved up leadpipe. Pryorphone: This trombone was constructed for high pitch, but even if lowered, this is the best playing and in-tune alto instrument I have ever found. I used it with The All-American Cornet Band for almost twenty years.

6375 Vocal Horn Rudall-Rose-Carte Instrument
This quaint-looking instrument pitched in C (one tone above the Bb tenor trombone, baritone, euphonium) is essentially a large version of the soprano Koenig horn or soprano Ballad horn (liedhorn). The bell was usually 6.5" in diameter. The bore profile of these instruments varied from flugle to saxhorn (the latter of which falls somewhere between cornet and flugle), and were played using a "French" (waldhorn) horn mouthpiece. This particular type of hybrid appeared five times that I know of: in the original 4ft C soprano Koenig horns of 1855-?, in the Vocal horns of Besson and Rudall, Carte & Rose from 1862 to 1871, in the soprano Ballad horns (liedhorns) of 1868-?, in the Besson Cornophones patented in 1890, that to the best of my knowledge lasted until some time around the First World War, and in the Getzen Frumpet from 1964-1985. In taxonomic terms the 8ft marching "French" horn is more a cousin to these instruments than to the actual 12ft "French" horn.

These instruments came equipped with 2 mouthpieces, one Eb-tenor-horn-size for F/Eb, and one small-shank Eb baritone/euphonium/tenor trombone-size for D/C; and two sets of slides, the shorter set marked for Eb with lines, and the longer set likewise marked for C.

Dan Rossi: Interesting.... No names I will dig up a picture of what the keys for the rotaries would have looked like. my guess is that This is in Bb or C depending on a lead pipe crook. The Key on the bell raises the Pitch 1 step. The horn is more than likely German made. gsmonks: Nice fluglehorn. I think that model with the key began appearing in the 1860s. Herold used to make one in the 1870s. The earliest photo of a working Eb tenor saxhorn (by Adolphe Sax) I have seen had both valves and keys, which puts the date for hybrids like this back to the 1840s. You still see keys on some instruments. Some contra-alto trumpets still come with a few, sometimes as many as three. The keys were used both to fix intonation in registers with unruly pitch problems, and to play certain notes. My guess is it plays in C and originally came with pigtail crooks or shanks for Bb and possibly A. I have seen 4-valve versions of these horns, in Eb/Bb, if memory serves.

6584 Alto Horn Schneider Instrument
gsmonks: This instrument, modeled after instruments built by his contemporaries, currently resides at the Leipzig museum. Also known as an Eb alto or tenor horn, it is the predecessor of such instruments as the Courtois Koenig horn. There are examples of instruments of this type (internal design, not outward shape) that predate the saxhorns in Europe. In the United States, Allen Dodworth was building brasswinds in this range in the 1830s, which he called Ebor Cornos (New York Horns). These horns, too, predate the saxhorns. Schneider, also called Cutter, built instruments only between 1846-1850. Found listed under various names such as "alto horn", "tenor horn" and "alto fluglehorn", this fanciful-looking instrument is an Eb tenor fluglehorn made by Johann Joseph Schneider some time between 1845 and 1850. This example is currently on display at the Leipzig museum (be sure to click on the British Flag, or else you will get Cutter instead of Schneider for a last name, then click on "tenor horn- 19th century"): This is a 3-valve instrument, as one can tell by counting the number of valve-slides. Do not be deceived by this instruments outward appearance. It is better to think of this instrument either in coiled, bell-forward or upright fashion. Instruments like this are the direct predecessors of the Courtois Koenig horn and all its descendents- horns like these represent the taxonomic links just prior. It is also important to note that Schneider based his work upon that of his predecessors and his contemporaries: he was an instrument builder, not an inventor. In this case, one of the pioneers in question was Leopold Uhlmann of Vienna, who created the Pumpenvalve before the 1830s. The rotary valve was invented by Bluhmel in 1811 or 1812. It is unknown when instruments like this first appeared, but they are known to have existed in the 1830s, in certain cases produced wholly independent of one another. Certain of the USs Allen Dodworths) brasswinds of this period (remember, Sax did not even begin to work on his saxhorns until 1842) would likely have been very similar in bore-profile (the Eb alto and Bb tenor ebor cornos, or New York horns), and it is a certainty that instruments like this (in profile, not appearance) influenced Sax when he built his own family of instruments. Instruments like this bring into question the authenticity of the saxhorns. There are many instruments that predate the saxhorns that are pretty much indistinguishable from them. Dodworths ebor cornos were so close that his descendents were forced to defend the authenticity of his creations, although Dodworth himself questioned their quality. I am not here refering to the ebor cornos or New York Horns that were a type of upright valved trombone. Though they bear the same name, they were not a Dodworth invention, nor did they serve the same function (regardless, Dodworths version was by all accounts strictly OTS). An examination of scores using these instruments date from a later period (the 1850s and later, to the best of my knowledge), and are usually soloist parts. Dodworths instruments were functional, not solo instruments. In continental Europe, horns like Schneiders were built in upright form like saxhorns before there were saxhorns, and do not play dissimilarly.

There is a picture of him during his days with Arthur Pryor holding one of these tubas. He sold it here in Central Florida over 25 years ago to a private school. Titusville is not far away and there are Very few of these horns, has anyone ever seen another one just like it? Anyway the most well versed in old tubas, as well as the most advanced repair person, among other things went to the store where it is and here are his observations.Frank Holton,Elkhorn, Wisconson-JW Richardson is engraved on the bell. The bell is 171/4 inches in diameter. The bore is 810! and 835 at the small side of the main tuning slide.There is no first valve. The other three are frozen and only one valve cap remains. There are no stems or valve buttons. Other than that it’s all there. I believe that this is Fred’s old horn and probably one of very few of that model that were built.Just wanted to share this information with you all. Also, there’s a picture of Walter Sear with one of these pitched in C in an article by Ray Nogera but I don’t know what issue it is from. Mabye Ray will enlighten us.

6906 Trumpet Heald 37956 Instrument
Keeferman: The Heald trumpet is a step bore design a little like the Martin Committee used decades later. The bore at the top of the tuning slide is .400, then expands through the bow to .438 at the bottom of the slide, then expands to .445 into the valve section. This cornet-like design gives the instrument a nice open feel in a medium bore horn. The bell cone is strictly trumpet-like, yielding a nice trumpet timbre with good depth to the tone due partly to the gold brass bell flare. The intonation is excellent, and the playing characteristics are quite good for what is essentially a late 19th century design.

The trumpet is a small bore Bb in silver-plated brass with the emblem without the flags and a star-x mark. It has the standard engraving about the army and conservatory. The construction is similar to the Charlier model, except that the lead pipe bends down from the level of the bell to go into the first valve, and the overall height is smaller. The lead pipe extension has a receiver that’s too small for a standard trumpet mouthpiece.

J.W. Pepper & Son | Premier } Philadelphia } Highest | Award and Diploma } Worlds Fair | Columbian Exposition | Chicago 1893 | 11465 Pryorphone: This instrument is singular in it’ engraving (embossing). Looking at other surviving Pepper instruments, the marking of "Premier | Philadelphia | Highest | Award and Diploma | Worlds Fair | Columbian Exposition | Chicago 1893" is consistent with other instruments in that serial number range, yet the "J.W.Pepper & Son" (which is clearly marked) only occurs on instruments after 1910, serial number 53000 and above. The "Premier" line does not occur above 11500, so the is nothing unusual about that, or the flat spring water key, nor indeed, anything else to indicate that this instrument was made other than in the 19th century. So why was the "Pepper & Son" imprinted years later?

OK, to narrow the field, 5 makers used Allen valves: Allen & Co (Allen & Richardson) DC Hall Hall & Quinby Quinby Brothers Lehnert & Co (Richardson & Lehnert) both Henry and Carl So, both Quinby and Lehnert look like good possibilities.

7311 Ebor Corno Graves 1840s Instrument
The Ebor Corno was supposedly invented and patented by Allen Dodworth in 1838. Langwill says that Graves started making brass instruments in 1837, and was using Vienna valves by the mid 1840s. There is an online quote from "The Tuba Family" by Clifford Bevan on the Dodworth and the Ebor Corno. I’ve not actually looked at the book nor checked out his references. He talks about Ebor Cornos, OTS instruments and instruments made by Uhlmann. But, it isn’t clear to me whether he is talking about one instrument - the ebor corno, or two instruments the ebor corno and the OTS instrument. Here is the quote: "In the United States, the introduction of the tuba and development of the all-brass band occurred at roughly the same time as in England. Following bands of woodwind and brass, with generally an ophicleide or bass horn providing the lowest notes, the mid-1830s saw the establishment of several bands consisting entirely of brass instruments. The first was probably the Dodworth Band of New York which dispensed with woodwind in 1834, but the bass part was still no doubt played on an ophicleide since Dodworth’s "bell-over-the-shoulder" instruments were not patented until 1838 and the _Ebor Corno_ valve instruments, again of Dodworth invention, were apparently built only in alto and tenor sizes. The backward-facing instruments were made to Allen Dodworth’s design by Uhlmann of Vienna in considerable quantities and a wide reange of sizes. The Henry Ford Museum at Dearborn, Michigan contains about 20 specimens and there is one in the Horniman Museum, London (Fig. 15). Exclusively marching instruments, the inventor is on record as having stated their unsuitability for concert work. (In Britain, however, Sir Michael Costa had backward-facing trombones made to counter his players’ alleged "overblowing".) many of the Dodworth instruments were used during the Civil War (1861-5)." In Dodworth’s 1853 book, he classified together Ebor Cornos, Sax Horns, Alt Horns, Clavicors, Neo Cors, Tenore Ophecleides, Tenore Tubas, Alto Trombones, tombacellos and French Horns as tenors. Baritones are: Baritone Sax Horns, Bb tombones, valve trombones, trombacellos, Klavicors Basses are: C and Bb Ophcleides, Sax Horrns, Bb Tubas And Contra Basses: Bass Tubas, Sax Horns, Bombardons, Trombacellos, and Bass Trombones I mention this to illustrate the variety of horns in existance in the 1850s, including ebor cornos and trombacellos (apparently in several sizes). He also says that "The French makers has a deservedly high reputation, but they do not all make good ones. The Germans have a decidedly bad reputation, but do not all make bad ones, as some of the finest instruments are manufactured by German makers; however it not now necessary to import brass instruments as formerly, as it is conceded by nearly all, that the finest quality of instruments are now made here, by our American manufacturers. " So, it may be an interpretation that Dodworth may have originally gone to Ulhman for instruments, but that Graves later became his source. Dodworth also states that the Dodworth family introduced OTS instruments in 1838. That may be what the patent was, and not for the ebor corno. In fact, internet references to the Dodworth patent seem to describe the OTS instrument, not the ebor corno.

Tenor Sousaphone LEW: I bought the horn shown in the eBay photos you have linked. I used it at Tuba Christmas this past December. It plays very well, easy blowing with a nice full sound, as you might expect from a euphonium with a 14" bell. I brought it to the US Army band tuba euphonium conference in January and Lee Stofer played it and sounded great. I have since spoken to a couple of other people who said that they have seen others and one who owns another one. I suspect that they were made as marching band baritones, but I still believe that a relatively small number were made and certainly a smaller number are still around in playing condition.

Pryorphone: They did not stamp them on the valve casings. Look under the valve caps to find the serial number (if there is one). In addition, one can narrow down the time period from the dates of the awards that are also on the bell. You might list ALL the bell engraving, and then we could help. KimC: Wow! There IS a serial number there! It is not very clear, but it says 13432. Thanks for that tip! So, here ist he complete text on that cornet: (in a circle):Medaille de 1re classe Exposition universelle 1855 Medaille Londres 1862 Exposition universelle Paris 1867 Medaille dHonneur En argent ----.---- Antonio Courtois & Mille Mille Sr Facteur du Conservatoire National 88 rue Des Marais St. Martin Paris ----.---- 1lr Prix Grande Medaille DOr Exposition Moscou 1872 & Medaille DOr Paris 1878 ----.---- S. Arthur Chappel sole agent 52 New Bond Street London Thats all, quite a lesson! That is why I ondered why there was no serial number, but now I have found it. Honestly I did not ecspect to find a serial number on a part that can easily be removed, or svapped to another instrument. Pryorphone: Looking at the bell award engravings that Ive been able to collect, that puts your cornet between 1878 - 1889

Engraved: Peerless | Fuller Ryde [?] Music Co | Indianapolis | Ind CJ Fuller and Joel Ryde owners are mentioned in publications dated 1923-8.

Langwill lists two Michls Johann & Sohn and Franz, but makes no connection between them. Franz was in Graslitz 1881-1937 and was succeeded at his death in 1935 by sons Franz, Rudolf and Adolf. Johann was in Graslitz 1870-1937. This horn appears to be engraved: Franz Michl | Musikinstrumentenfabrik | Graslitz | 1. B. | Gegr | 1881 | Joh. Michl | Tallinn
7435 Bugle Schenkelaars Bb Instrument
Bastrompet: bought this instrument on the internet and it is a normal Bb trumpet except it is missing the third valve what I want to know is there another brand that build 2 valve Bb trumpets and why did they build them? It seems to me that making a normal Bb is cheaper for the factories and gives the buyer a complete instrument and if you do not want to use the third valve ? then that is your choice. Pryorphone: I believe that the drum & bugle corps used this configuration after the single piston valve + single rotary valve configuration for their instruments (now they use a full three valved instrument). MineralMan: The two-valve configuration will allow playing a normal scale in the native key of the instrument, at least in the second full octave of the horn. For drum and bugle work, that would be more than sufficient, I would think. Once you get past the first bugled fifth, you have access to all the notes in the major scale, using just the two valves. Normal bugle calls do not go below that fifth, anyhow. Still, it seems kinda silly to me, since the addition of the third valve would make the instrument fully chromatic. I ca not imagine that it would add that much cost, given the low price of student-level trumpets these days. Bastrompet: My thoughts exactly but I forgot to tell this instrument is already some thirty years old and there is almostly no wear on the valves atall so I gues it has hardly been played on. It is supposed to have come from the Royal Dutch Airforce Band if so they most probably only tryed it out to find out they did not want it. I hope it is quite a rare one because that is what I try to collect rare Dutch made brass instruments.

gsmonks: There is much controversy surrounding these so-called cornos da caccia (horn(s) of hunting). This particular instrument would more correctly be classified as a modern variation of the valved furst pleiss (post) horn. Regardless whether these instruments are authentic or not, they nevertheless are beautifully made, and perform as well as any other top instrument. As far as that goes, the same could be said of the piccolo trumpet, a modern contraption that is routinely used to perform period music.

7687 Trumpet Benge 1501 1946 Instrument
wlwright: According to Joe Lills research, this is the first or second large-bore Benge. Elden Benge made if for his good friend Frank Anglund when Mr. Anglund started playing for the NBC orchestra. Whether it is the first or second or third or whatever may be disputed, but I feel pretty confident that it is the earliest large-bore Benge that is in original unrestored condition. When I play it I feel like I am holding a piece of trumpet history. And I am just strange enough to think it is cool that Elden Benge himself probably baked the lacquer in his kitchen. It is entirely possible that Mr. Anglund did not like the way it plays; one of Anglunds students told Joe Lill that while taking lessons number 1501 was "loaned" to him for about a week, which would imply that by then Anglund had stopped playing it himself. After Anglund death in 1960 (he was right around 57 at the time) it appears that the horn worked its way through the Anglund family. Whether or not Mr. Anglund liked it, I SURE DO. This horn has quickly become my main player. It simply plays itself. Every note makes it resonate in my hands, and it plays in tune. It does not really "extend" my range, but it sure makes the range I have easier to work with. And to my surprise, it plays softly just as nice as it plays loudly.

7782 Bugle Whaley Royce Bb Instrument
Engraved: Imperial Whaley-Royce Limited Makers Toronto surrounded by an 8 Maple Leaf wreath and numbers "7", "38" and "Regt. This refers to the 38 Brant Battalion, No. 7 Company, Infantry, (Drumbo, Ontario). "The Dufferin Rifles.- By General Order of 28th September, 1866, the Commander-in-Chief of the Forces- the Right Honourable Charles Stanley, Viscount Monck- was pleased to authorize the formation of the 38th Brant Battalion of Infantry, with headquarters at Brantford, and composed of the following independent companies, and numbered as follows: # in Batt. Gazetted Company Designation Co. HQ. Captain 1 June 26th, 1856 Rifle Company Paris Andw H. Baird 2 Dec. 13th, 1861 No. 1 Rifle Company Brantford David Curtis 3 July 3rd, 1862 No. 2 Rifle Company Brantford John J. Inglis (Highland) 4 Jan. 30th, 1863 Infantry Company Mt. Pleasant Crossley Heaton 5 June 1st, 1866 Infantry Company Brantford Henry Lemmon 6 Aug. 17th, 1866 Infantry Company Burford Edmund Yeigh 7 June 30th, 1863 Infantry Company Drumbo John Laidlaw." On January 5th, 1971, The Mount Pleasant Company was removed from the list of the Volunteer Militia, and the remaining companies of the regiment were renumbered as follows: No. 1 company, Paris; No. 2 Company, Brantford; No. 3 Company, Brantford; No. 4 Company, Brantford; No. 5 Company, Burford; No. 6 Company, Drumbo. No other 7th company was raised. Therefore the 1871 date would precede by 17 years the date of 1888 when Whaley-Royce was supposed to have opened for business. Thoughts on how this was possible?
7783 Cornet Fiske OTS Eb Instrument
Nickel silver TARV OTS with one key to facilitate the high C. A presentation instrument. Engraved bell garland with a patriotic eagle with shield. Inside the shield in tiny letters is stamped I. Fiske, Maker. Gold plaque on bell reads "Presented to C. Rubsam, by the Newark (NJ) Brass Band, September 1, 1853." Christopher Rubsam, born in Thuringia, Prussia (Germany) was a grocer by trade and was the leader of Rubasm&squo;s Newark Brass Band from 1844-1868. Rubsam&squo;s Brass Band played for Abraham Lincoln when he visited Newark, NJ on 20 February 1860 on his way to be sworn in as President of the United States. It is certainly possible that Rubsam performed on this very instrument for Abraham Lincoln.

ML bore (0.460") whwright: This trumpet was originally owned by a guy named Richard Schulz, who apparently played in the Eddie Fitzpatrick Orchestra up and down the west coast. I can find no further documentation on Richard Schulz, but the person I bought the trumpet from was told in 1988 that Richard died "years ago." The trumpet appears to have been repaired and refinished at least once, and it was done very well. All the engraving is crisp and sharp, the valves are perfect, and the horn plays wonderfully. This is my first trumpet with the "underslung" third slide ring, and I am surprised how natural it feels.

8232 Tenor Horn Landskrona Instrument
Olof: I think it is a Swedish tenorhorn (Bb) commonly used in Swedish sextets. It has the Swedish fingering with 3rd valve lowering the pitch two full steps instead of 1 1/2. If it says Landskrona I can only think of one manufacturer: Jacob Valentin Wahl (1801-1887). The silver ferrule where the bell is joined to the body is identical to the Wahl Bb and Eb cornets The first and, over a dozen years, only manufacturer of brass instruments with valves in Sweden was Jacob Valentin Wahl in Landskrona. In the years prior to 1840 Wahl manufactured mainly woodwind instruments. He also made some brass instruments without valves. In the early 1840s he began to manufacture keyed bugles. The firm grew in size and towards the end of 1840 he ended the production of woodwind instruments in favor of the brass instruments. This suggests a strong demand for the latter. In the military bands Wahl saw a new market, which allowed a rapid reorganization and expansion of the business, in the late 1840s, he had a dozen helpers. In the 1860s Wahls firm started to decline. The reason was probably competition from the Stockholm-based company Ahlberg & Ohlsson, who for over a century would come to dominate the Swedish production of brass instruments. The companys founder, Olof Ahlberg and Lars Ohlsson, had both been employed by Wahl until 1850. The tenorhorn might not be as old as the 1880s? (before Wahl died) Maybe the production in Landskrona continued after the death of Wahl, but I bet it was still manufactured at his plant, since it is hard to believe there would be yet another competing manufacturer out of Landskrona with Ahlberg & Ohlsson being so dominating.

Bastrompet: LInstrumental Fauburg was a Dealer. Derekmac: I just translated the word stamped into the bell above into "LENINGRAD". Kevin: St Petersburg (Leningrad) and Odessa were the centers for Brass instrument production going back to the Czarist days. Germans and Czechs brought the traditions of brass instrument making to Russia. The old St Petersburg factory is still in business. There is no reason why the instruments should be inferior in any way to equivalent instruments from any country. I’m sure they made rough band instruments just like everywhere else but there is no reason why the better instruments wouldn’t measure up. Development was certainly behind that of Europe. Russian production got underway later with input from people like Cerveny and Schediwa. The St Petersburg production began with the establishment of J.H. Zimmermann.

After his dead one of his sons continued his facrory and he is probably the maker of this bugle. I bought it with this Eb slide but I guess it originaly came with a Bb slide as well.

Berliner Valves Engraved: Agren & Cni Kristianstad Height: 36in Anthony Baines’s Brass Instruments Their History and Development "Such has proved the case inasmuch as the last three of these (horns, tenor horns, and tubas) continued to be made with Berlin pistons by Moritz and makers in Sweden (brass-wise mainly within the Berlin orbit) in the present century and were familiar objects among North German troops in the First World War. The Swedish Royal Guards only abandoned their last Berlin-valve Tubas some twenty-five years ago and some are still doing fine service in amateur bands in that country”.

8976 Trumpet Hernals 1254 Instrument
According to discussions on TrumpetMaster: The Hernalser Musicalien-Fabrication, using the tradename, Hernals, produced amateur quality instrument and went out of business in approximately 1919. Hernals is a suburb of Vienna. "The mouthpiece is just a typical example of Austrian mouthpieces of that that time that had to work just as well on an Eb bass trumpet and therefore are much larger than anything produced in the UK or the USA at the time. Remember, at that time in Austria the Bb trumpet was almost the highest trumpet in use, and the Vienna Philharmonic were playing everything on F bass trumpets..."

Henry Gunchel Paris?? Is this the same tradename,Henri Gunckel? Peter: The bell and valve cluster suggest either Austria, Germany, or Italy. French makers generally did not use this type of rotary valve. I wonder if this valve cluster was mass produced somewhere. Bastrompet: I went through my Helicon database and found this type of valve cluster mainly in Czech German and Italian helicons. It could well be that there was one manufacturer responsible form most of them.

Bore:.456 Bell: 11.81 This model was designed by Lucien Thevet. In 1964 Lucien Thevet performed with this Instrument on a Tour of Japan. This model was also played by many famous French soloists -such as David Guerrier in France, as well as players in in the US and in Japan. This instrument was based on the Raoux Millereau French Horn created in late 1800s, though the design of the pistons valves remained the same. After having taken over the Raoux Millereau Company, in 1931, the Selmer Company continued to develop this design. This Instrument, therefore is the final design in this French tradition. The Thevet improvements included an enlarged the bore size and the bell.

Alphonse Sax (1822-74) was the brother of Adolphe. From 1843-45 he worked for his brother Adolphe. In 1845, he established in Bruxelles as brass instrument maker, and in 1857 in Paris, In 1859 his "systeme saxalphomnitonique" was examinaed by the Paris Conservatoire. He was involved in a dispute with his brother over the invention of the ascending valve. And by 1864, he was bankrupt, and was subsequently active as jeweler. The instruments of Alphonse SAX are very rare, especially with this system!

Conn patented a Spiral valve that was to combine the characteristics of the piston and the rotary valve. But, it never seems to have made it into production. This cornet from 1914, however, appears to have a variation on the valve as its pitch changer. This horn was apparently not a production instrument and has no Conn logo on the bell. But it does have a Conn patent April 2, 1907 on the valve casing along with the Union Label.

Bastrompet: It is the place to put your thumb under just between the first and second valve casing. It seems strange the first time but since most valve trombones are not balanced and tend to lean forward you need to lift it and that is easier with your thumb than using your pink in a hook. There are Belgian Baritones and Tenorhorns with such a plate I guess so you do not have to lift all the weight with your left arm

Five Valve Trombone / Euphonium Model Schediphon German silver name plate: Musik-Jrsir.-Fabrik Bohland & Fuchs Graslitz Bohmen Height: 33 inches Bells: 9.5/8.75in Schediphon by Josef Josefovich Schediwa, Odessa, The Ukraine, patented in 1901 (with a subsequent patent [No. 8733] taken out in 1902 for Bohland & Fuchs in Graslitz). Josef Schediwa (1853-1915) worked first for Cervený, but went to The Ukraine about 1881, where he eventually established his own firm in Odessa. He invented many brass instruments, including the similarly shaped lyrophone; however, the schediphons were among his last inventions. In 1905 Schediwa presented 174 of his brass instruments to the Landesmuseum in Prague, of which 63 are said to survive at the National Museum of Czech Music in Prague.
9591 Cornet Squire c. 1870 HP Bb Instrument
A. Squire | Cincinnati | Ohio Copy of the Courtois Koenig Model and probably made by Gautrot Double water key on the same crook Engraved: A Squire / Cincinnati / Ohio Bell: 4-5/8in Length: 12in Yankee: Alfred Squire worked in Cincinnati from about 1869 to 1890. He advertised as an importer and manufacturer of instruments. This horn has a unique design in a couple of ways. The look of the valves and their thin profile finger pads makes me think that this is from the 1880s or near there. The uncommon items are the "S" lead pipe and the dual horizontal water key. Bore: .45 The two spouts are both on the same section of pipe so there was really no need for both.

Kitchen & Co 29 Queen Victoria St Leeds Kevin: Robert Snowdon Kitchen, proprietor of Kitchen & C0, Leeds. Operated in Leeds from 1894-1955. According to preliminary research by John Townsend Joint Librarian, Thoresby Society, Leeds, Kitchen opened his business sometime during the mid 1890s at a stall, 163 Kirkgate Market. (Robinsons, Kellys� Directories) He moved regularly to progressivly more prestigious establishments and settled finally at 29 Queen Victoria St. This is central to what are known as the Empire buildings and are a part of a large covered mall (incorporating several lanes and streets)at the present. He expanded into adjacent shops as the need arose. At some point, he began manufacturing brass instruments.

9860 Cornet Allen-Hall Bb Instrument
A custom factory-made (by Allen Mfg. Co., Allen & Hall, or Hall & Quinby) Bb rotary valve bell front with an Eb valve bugle bell. This horn was restored by Robb Stewert. When the finger hook was removed the shadow of the stamped oval Allen Mfg. Company escutcheon plate appeared. The instrument features a large Eb bell with special Bb tubing which is slightly larger standard Boston Bb cornet tubing. It is likely that the bell on this instrument was from old stock. The tuning shank is 1870s style made of nickel-silver rather than plated brass.

Heribert Glassl Heribert Glassl opend his shop in app. 1948 as a instrument shop and a repair shop. He started making instruments himself and grew to 8 employees. He was the first European Instrument manufacturor that made fiberglas Sousaphones and fiberglas Tubas. They seem to have made very decent Trombones. His son had already taken over the shop but he suddenly died in 2002 so Heribert had to take control over the firm again he finally quit in 2005 at an age of 75 years old. The machines and one of the employees went to the Netherlands to Adams Music in Thorn where they now make their own Flugelhorns that seem to be Pro quality and they are working on Euphoniums now.

The awkward looking angle of the bell makes it very comfortable to play. It has the typical sound of the small bore trombones used in France and Belgium up to the 1960s, fingering is "doigt ministeriel" i.e. 3rd valve is two whole steps down. built completely after the Sax-patent from the 1860s with three Perinet valves, number four is really a Sax hybrid valve

Built with 2 of his last patents in the last year of operation: 1436085, a disk valve for the Bb/A change (rather than a rotor) and, a shorter mouthpipe for a smaller valve valve bore so that the valve tubing would have less impact on the overall valve profile. Note the blind tubing for the right hand to grip while working the valves... KimC: It is a nice instrument. But it may hide some challenges for the player. First, the valve loops with their Sattler shape cannot be removed. That makes cleaning of the valve loops much more difficult. You may say that cleaning valve loops can not be that big issue, how often do we need to do that on our horns? In this particular instrument, it will be an issue. An instrument with Perinet valves has the water key before the valve section, along with some tubing, so that water in the valve section can be avoided. Perinet valves have a rather large surface, that is why they need valve oil. Oil mixed with water will not merge and actually "takes up double space", further by the time it becomes some sticky stuff that makes the valves move uneasily. That is why the makers place the water keys before the valve section in Periet instruments - wherever this is possible. This is not the case here, that combined with the irremovable valve loops will give some issues. The use of a disc valve for a change of tuning is fun, as this valve need no fast response it has been possible to place the loops directly on the rotor. This makes the rotor heavier, but that is not an issue with a valve that is only for a key change.

A tuba of the music corps of the Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler C.A. Wunderlich, Siebenbrunn Vogtl., stamped 44. Engraved at the bell: Musikkorps der Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler. C.A. Wunderlich is one of the most important wholesale companies for musical instruments. Being the only music corps of SS and Wehrmacht, the LSSAH consisted of 72 musicians instead of the usual 36 till 1945. Only three of them played tuba. Extremely rare. Bell: 16.5in Height: 44in Wunderlich, C. A., WWI, BI fl Siebenbrunn 1854-c1945. Established in 1854, according to advertisement; according to Ernst, established by Carl August Wunderlich ( b 1882-d1959); the family had long been active locally as SI, guitar makers; 1909 advertised as factory for BI and strings, dealers in all MIs; 1934 advertised Herstellung in Heinmarbeit (home-worker production) and assured their customers that its products were not mediocre machine-made instruments, but rather they were hand-made by local artisans, although their names were never stated. A very large firm of MI makers/dealers, offering by catalogue WWIs, BIs, PIs, SIs; Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler Musikkorps History Formed in 1933, and beloved of the Third Reichs Propaganda Newsreels, the legendary military band of Adolf Hitlers Bodyguard Division, the Leibstandarte-SS, was to become the most famous of all Military Musikkorps in the entire history of Nazi Germany..! In their striking black ceremonial uniforms and under the strict musical leadership of Hermann Muller-John and his professional deputy SS-Hauptscharführer Gustav Weissenborn, (whose military life & war as an SS-Musikmeister is documented in Brian Matthews book, The Military Music & Bandsmen of Adolf Hitlers Third Reich 1933-45), top quality military music was performed at the very highest level by this much favoured unit and performances by the superb musicians recruited to this elite band were very much in demand right across the Reich and also beyond, courtesy of a number of highly publicised and successful concert tours the band made across pre-war Europe! The Musikkorps was formed on 4/8/1933, 36 musicians under command of SS-Hauptsturmführer Hermann Muller-John ( born 4/8/1894; died 8/5/1945). In 1934 the orchestra was expanded to 72 men, selected on musical, health and racial qualifications. In the end the korps had a Sollstarke of 108 Musiker, but actual strength was 96 men.

10902 Trumpet Herdim Professional Instrument
Patent was assigned to John Maher first in the US and then in Britain. It was apparently for the bell design. It dates the horn to no older than 1954. That patent is interesting. It almost looks like it was hand marked on the instrument. The Herdim name seems to be associated with a string company in Germany. I assume he was a dealer. And, the design seems familiar but what about that patent?

10985 Baritone Graves Instrument
5 valve, Screw bell OTS A=450 Engraved on Bell: Made by | Graves & Co. | for | Geo. H. Hall | East Marshfield | Aug 13th 1851 / No 1 Engraved on Case: Presented to G. H. Hall / by / J. W. Mitchell / P. B. B. Mark Elrod wrote: This instrument is currently owned by John Korzun, a collector of over 30 years who lives in southern MI and was Steve Dillon’s original partner when the former lived in NJ. In my opinion, it is the rarest and most unusual instrument with the “Graves” signature on its bell. Needless to say, there is nothing like it ever offered for sale. It had been for sale by Dillon Music in New Jersey for several years at an asking price of $35,000.00. It was rumored that the New York Metropolitan Museum was working out a deal to buy it several years ago but if that was the case, it never materialized. Continuing on, as a collector, I would like to present some thoughts/information from my perspective. If you read the description, the presentation year on the bell is 1851. Graves & Co. moved to Boston in 1851 from Winchester, NH. Since that is the case and knowing Graves & Co. capabilities insofar as manufacturing valve brasses in 1851, it is my belief that none of the component parts of this instrument were made at or by Graves but put together from parts imported from Germany. This was not an uncommon occurrence by makers and dealers in America. Graves was not set up nor did they have their own machinery to produce valves at that time (1851) and were only producing Eb keyed bugles and those in e.g. Wright’s shops. This arrangement between Wright and Graves apparently continued until sometime in 1856 when Wright (for some reason) moved his operations to Lowell, MA (for several years) and Graves took over the shops location in Boston where they started to manufacture all components of valve brass instruments. I have several brass instruments signed either “Made at E.G. Wright for Graves & Co., Boston” and “Made by Graves & co. at E. G. Wright, Boston.” Getting back to the actual instrument, it remains to be seen if this instrument will realize….say 25-30K. There are very few private collectors who might have the money to buy this instrument and money is very tight for museums at this time. From what I understand, the valves are quite loose (leaky). If someone bought it with the intention of playing, a “valve-job” at Andersons would cost over a grand in addition to smaller tweaks that might be necessary.

The little Brush is for swabbing out shanks and other pipes in _front_ of valves The long Bb shank is the one proper to use but in case a piano or organ is to sharp then use the short C shank, when you use the cornet in Bb then use the 2 intermediate shanks for flatening. It was impossible to make the low pitch Bb slide long enough for low pitch as it struck the ____, therefore the intermediate shank had to be resorted to, put in the mute with the nome on top and. . .

11471 Sudrophone Sudre C/Bb Instrument
Sudrophone basse (bass sudrophone) 4 valves (Sudre, Paris, early 20th century). The sudrophone version of the euphonium. Sudrophones have an adjustable built-in mirliton which give the option of the timbe of either a normal euphonium, a tenor saxophone, or anything in between. from The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Brass Instruments: Sudrophone A group of valved brass instruments characterized by a timbre-altering device which can be activated at will. The sudrophone device has a membrane which acts as a mirliton (a timbre modifier similar to the membrane in a kazoo) fixed in a rectangular window in a brass cylinder attached to the bell of the instrument. There is a rectangular window of similar size in the bell of the instrument; the cylinder can be rotated by the player to completely or partially align the membrane with the window in the bell. When the device is not operated, the membrane is not aligned with the window in the bell, which is then covered by the wall of the brass cylinder, and the sudrophone behaves like a normal instrument. When the membrane is completely aligned with the window in the bell, the vibration of the membrane adds a pungent buzzing quality to the sound. The cylinder can be rotated to allow a continuous variation in timbre: intermediate settings can give the instrument a timbre reminiscent of a saxophone. The membrane, which can be tensioned by a screwed knob, was originally of silk cloth, but a thin plastic sheet also works well. The sudrophone device has been added to the cornet and to saxhorns of all sizes. The sudrophone was invented by the Parisian maker François Sudre and patented in France in 1892 (see Patents). Sudre built all sudrophones in a characteristic wrap influenced by the ophicleide with the valve cluster placed near the centre of the instrument and projecting out to the side. The tubing below the level of the valves with the U-shaped bow can be detached to facilitate transportation (Figure 83). Sudrophones could be bought from the maker’s Paris shop as late as the 1960s. Despite providing a significant addition to the range of timbres available to the brass instrumentalist, the sudrophone seems never to have made the transition from novelty to normality: although enough survive to represent the sudrophone in instrument collections, it never achieved the popularity of the echo bell.

11490 Trombone Migma Instrument
Furscht Migma Trombone I am unsure whether the maker was Furscht or Migma, and therefore I&rqquo;m not sure where to classify it. The information I received with this horn said: "Furscht was a manufacturer who had to sell through Migma during the communist era. I have seen a few horns etc by the brand Furscht from before communism. Some were quite expensive on auctions. But I find no other information. My hope is that someone knows who and where they were and what happened to them."

Only she survived the war and continued the business after. It ended in 2007. This cornet would have been a stencil as Hakkert never manufactured brass.

The 1918 Conn Catalog describes the 6E as an alternative to the French horn in modern bands, but were not appropriate for orchestra settings. The catalog pointed out that bands use French horn music in Eb (which was a short lived convention of the time). The instrument was pitched in Eb and also came with a crook to lower it to C so it could play off of piano music.

11653 Trumpet Gretsch Commander 12387 Instrument
Manufacturer: Pedler/ART This one is a bit different than the usual Gretsch Commanders made by Harry Pedler/ART... Instead of the ordinary/reverse-wrap Commanders based on the American Triumph, based on the King Liberty It has a nested Esbach slide for tuning to A, threaded bottom slide leg for tuning adjuster [long gone], X-braced Esbach slide, and three-point piston guides. a proprietary receiver which basically only accepts Large Morse flugelhorn mouthpieces, and the bell does not have a thick-bead, rounded rim. The rim is folded over and flat It responds really nicely in the upper register
