This is a 1944 Selmer (Paris) trumpet. There is the normal wear and tear that you would see on an instrument of this vintage - scratches, wear, etc.It has two patches on it that do not affect the playability or sound of the horn -- one where the bell meets the valve cluster, and another on the bell stem right *next* to the cluster. You can see it in the pics below.The 3rd valve slide ring is also not original. The original lacquer is about 80% remaining.
Specs:-Serial number 4186-Valve numbers: 1,2,3-Leadpipe Stamp: BB MB LP 19 (B-flat, Medium Bore, Low Pitch, #19 Leadpipe)What makes this unique...it\'s a Model 19, which is the smallest bore that Selmer made. This is the only 19 I\'ve seen that *isn\'t* a Balanced-Action horn. My intent was to restore it to its former glory, but money is tight and I\'ve got to let it go.
