The eBay seller may be unfamiliar with those instruments. They are
products of the York instrument company & you have to be a Dork to play 1.
I claim accuracy for the 2nd part of that statement on the basis of tooting
1 in 6th & 7th grades in the Oak Street School Band & the Falls Church
Schools Area Band & the Troop 140 Boy Scout band.
When I got to 8th grade, the teacher wouldn't let me play in the band
unless I put away the York alto horn & took up 1 of their Conn 6Ds instead.
The rest is history.
