Actually, that reminded me of another Schmidt question.  I have 2 single F 
horns marked "J Schmidt" in a script very similar to the usual "CF Schmidt".  
One is marked CSR, the other, only 21 serial numbers later is marked "made in 
Germany".  Has anybody heard of this maker?  It's not mentioned in the Langwill 
dictionary.  Both were imported to the US by Gaetz Music House in Columbus.  
They are a spittin' image of the earlier King single Fs including layout, style 
and placement of braces, figerhooks etc but are definitely not made by King.
