Description
This Boosey & Co Cornet silver plated and comes in it's original case. Also has four mouthpieces and numerous extras as shown in pictures. This cornet is beautifully engraved to the bell 'Solbron' Class A Light Valve. The serial number on the bell is #109813 which dates this instrument to 1920. There are a couple small dings as photographed. The valve tubes are numbered 28, 29 and 30 and there is also a stamped number 84532. The two outside valves move well, but the center one gets stuck. Unfortunately, I am not a musician.. just a finder of wonderful things. In my opinion however, this would need repair before being playable. Although I cannot say to what extent, but I am certainly more than happy to answer any questions or provide photographs. I used up the 12 allotted for the listing, but feel free to reach out and I will be glad to send whatever photos you would like to see.The case is also a little rough.. one side flap is hanging on by a thread. The handle and straps are good. See photographs for best description. This comes from a local smoke-free estate.
