This horn is a true example of the Viennese horns in the style of Josef Felix Riedl (Vienna), but it is badly damaged & the starting price is really a fantasy price. And it is not a "rotary horn" as it has pumpen-valves. ============================================================ ===================================================

A real (and undoubtedly expensive) challenge to restore to playing condition, if at all.
