Along the side of the bell throat, it had A L E X A N D R E engraved, and "made in italy" on the end of the lead pipe. Piston change valve, 3 regular rotary valves. My guess is that it's 50+ year old junk, an Alex clone. Further information appreciated. It appeared to be otherwise be a standard double horn, lacquered brass of some sort. I was frankly surprised that all the valves worked and the slides moved - someone must have been playing it. Thanks in advance. Oh, the Bb side sounded OK, and the F side sounded, well, awful. -S- _______________________________________________ post: horn@music.memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at http://music2.memphis.edu/mailman/options/horn/jeffrey.carter%40ttu.edu
