Boston Musical Instrument Company, Cornet Plus Ultra 3 Star Silver

Description

I believe this is a three star cornet from Boston Musical Instruments. that was made between 1908-1915 sometime. Engraved 19840 A. There are two one-piece receivers for the mouthpiece (one shows more wear than the other, see photos of close ups).  The design on the slide linkeages is a signature for Boston instruments. This horn also has a double key split. Please note that im not 100 percent sure on all of this besides the maker of it due to engravings. There are signs of wear such as some areas of larger dents in the bell and some smaller in the tube portion, shown in the last few photos. There is a repaired area or solder work that was done right below and off to the side in the valve buttons on the tube. I did press on the valve buttons, and they pop back out, but one sticks occasionally. Untested or not played, so I dont know playing condition. There is some discoloration as well. The case shows quite a bit of wear, mark, dirt, and aging. Buying as is, no returns. I am not an expert of instruments in any way, so please see all photos and ask questions. I'll ship extra securely through ups ground or usps ground advantage depending on the most cost-effective option. Thanks
