It looks to be in fairly good shape also. I can remember when these horns were "new" (1962), and the commotion they caused when they first became available. The Garfield Cadets, St Raphaels Buccaneers,, Hawthorne Caballeros and the USAF "Blue Eagles" (Bolling AFB) were the first corps to use them.

Elphaba <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm now playing that horn, it was almost the same as the one given to me in 65' while is junor corps. It's small but plays very well using a Bach 24AW. Taking a lot of ribbing from the other Contra players while I wait to get a full size horn but that's ok. I'm just glad to be in drum corps again after a 36 year layoff. In the www.theparkcitypride.org and loving it !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
