I AM SELLING AN ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL FULLY RESTORED MARTIN HANDCRAFT IMPERIAL TRUMPET.(out of my collection of horns) EVERYTHING ON THIS TRUMPET IS ORIGINAL. IT WAS RESTORED IN THE 1990'S BY HARRY CARTER OF PETTIFOURS IN ELKHART INDIANA.
THIS HORN IS OF COURSE LACQUER AND NICKEL PLATED. THIS HORN LOOKS LIKE IT JUST LEFT THE MARTIN HANDCRAFT PERSON ON THE ASSEMBLY LINE AT THE MARTIN FACTORY IN 1938.. YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER MARTIN HANDCRAFT TRUMPET LIKE THIS. IT IS ONE OF A KIND. SERIAL # 128109 MADE IN 1938.
THE BELL HAS THE LION AND IN BOLD BLOCK LETTERS
MARTIN HANDCRAFT ELKHART, IND.
USA
IMPERIAL
THE ETCHING ON THE HORN IS MINT PERFECT.
THE HORN IS THE #2 MEDIUM BORE AS MOST OF THE HORNS WERE IN THE 30'S.
IT PLAYS GREAT!
THE COMPRESSION IS 100%
THE VALVES WERE REPLATED BY ANDERSON IN ELKHART. THEY ARE LIGHTING FAST.
MARTIN HORNS LIKE THIS IN ROUGH CONDITION HAVE SOLD FROM $800.00 TO 1200.00. ON EBAY
YOU WILL NOT FIND ONE LIKE THIS I AM SURE ANYWHERE.
THIS HORN HAS BEEN IN MY COLLECTION WITH MANY MORE HORNS THAT I AM PREPARING TO SELL. I AM 73 YEARS OLD AND STARTING TO PART WITH MY COLLECTION OF ALL MAKES AND BRANDS OF HORNS.
IT ALSO HAS THE ORIGINAL CASE THAT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION FOR ITS AGE.
I AM PUTTING A PRICE ON IT OF $1800.00
