From the engraving on the bell I can tell it is a Japanese Nikkan trumpet, which was absorbed by Yamaha somewhere in the 1960’s. Everywhere online mentions a Nikkan no.2, but on the second valve mine says no.1, which leads me to believe it’s a different model. If anyone has any idea where to go, or if there’s someone with expertise that I can message to ask the question that would be great lol. Thanks[/url]

The Imperial looks a little like a Bach Strad - perhaps this trumpet was base on the old Mercury model.

This link refers to a Model 1 but I think it is the Imperial.
