The title of this auction is "Old Frank Holton & Co. Trumpet, needs repair"
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2373413548&category=16214
The funniest part is where he says "...But it could be repaired and turned into a great vintage collector's piece!" ummmm. yeah.... good luck with that.

What good is a spit valve though if you can't get any spit into the horn to let out? I don't see a leadpipe anywhere to be seen. Someone bid on it though. Hope he is a repairman.

Forget repairman, I hope he owns an Applebees, Fridays or Bennigans. Wait strike that, he would need a repairman to hang it on the wall. Happy Hunting indeed.
