Inherited this a couple years ago when I was helping a widow sell off her husband's collection of horns, mouthpieces and music. Thanks in advance!

We had a guy in community band who played one of those. If I sat next to him I would give it a quarter turn when he had his trumpet on a stand and he wasn't looking.
