Hi all,

I'm trying to track down the original shop card for my Mt. Vernon Strad Cira 1955 serial number begins 139** I've emailed conn-selmer a few times but no reply and that was weeks and weeks ago. I'm keen to discover what leadpipe it is, it's a standard 37 Bell but not sure if its a #7 or #25 leadppipe. Any thoughts most welcome. Al[/b]

Good luck! I know some folks manage to get them with minimal fuss but I've tried writing, emailing and calling as well as have a shop that is a Bach dealer try to get a card and each inquiry was a bust. I finally surrendered.

Hey Al!

Just sent you a message with some suggestions for contact. I have cards for all my horns and just received one about a month ago for NY I sold. Hope this helps.

Best!

Matt

Send me your complete serial number and any bell or pipe markings and bore size to me via pm here. I can't provide you with a shop card but I do have substantial notes and info that may help you in the meantime.
