Anyone heard of these. Claim to be vintage. Any info appreciated.

Here is a picture https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/AuAAAOSwaX1iROAM/$_1.JPG?set_id=8800005007

Almost certainly a random stencil. Maybe a vintage stencil, but still a stencil.

Does it have stamped on it the country of origin?

No, nothing.

There's another one listed here claiming vintage. But again, Google searches remain fruitless.

Is that from Mark or Donnie's manufacturing company ? It looks like either the "Blue Bloods" edition or the Fabulous "Markie Mark" edition. Both would be a steal !!!!

Sure looks familiar.

Receiver looks a little like a student Holton, valve caps look like the old Getzen 300's . Bracing looks like left over Pan American. Green felts from an Ambassador .

Something there for everyone.

And the angle on the slide pull knobs looks like Blessing! 👍

Hey Guys,

I've got one of these trumpets, can anyone tell me more about it or what it could be worth?
not that I'm really looking at selling it, it plays quite nice and has good valve action[/img]

I looked this up a long time ago but found almost nothing then. Nothing else shows up now either. I recall something about Walburg branded bugles, but I can't find anything about them now.
