PRESENTING FOR AUCTION, AN ANTIQUE SAXOPHONE. THIS GREAT OLD ALTO SAX IS ENGRAVED ON THE BELL WITH “PERFECTION” “MADE” “U.S.A.” “BRUNO” “N.Y.”. BELOW THE THUMB REST “PATD.DEC.8.1914.” “1119954” “A” “P18780” “L” CAN BE SEEN. THE INSTRUMENT APPEARS TO HAVE NOT BEEN USED IN QUITE SOMETIME BUT NO DENTS OR BROKEN/MISSING PARTS. AN UNMARKED MOUTHPIECE IS INCLUDED WITH THE LIGATURE STAMPED WITH A “C”. THE FINISH IS TARNISHED, SHOULD CLEAN UP NICELY AS I HAVE WITH LITTLE EFFORT CLEANED MARKED AREA’S FOR PHOTOS. THE BELL HAS DISCOLORATION FROM THE LEATHER STRAP TO HOLD IT IN PLACE WHEN TRANSPORTED IN THE INCLUDED ORIGINAL CASE. I DON’T PLAY SO CAN’T VOUCH FOR PADS, LIKELY WILL NEED SOME ATTENTION. NOT MUCH HAS TURNED UP IN RESEARCH ONLY THAT THIS COMPANY MAY HAVE BEEN A BRANCH OF CONN IN THE EARLY 1900’S. NICE LOOKING ALTO SAX, WORTH SAVING.
