LYON & HEALY VINTAGE SILVER CORNET

Description

I just finished restoring this Lyon & Healy, Chicago, Ill. Cornet in silver-plate
with a Shepherd's Crook. Cornet is in Bb and has a extra slide for A.
The extra slide for A is marked with #3446.
This is Lyon & Healy's "Own Make" hand engraved on the bell and
surrounding the engraving are leaves also hand engraved.
This Cornet dates to 1904, and #3446 is engraved on the bell.
Inside the bell is gold-plated that is bright and shiny. There are two (2) slightly worn
places one on the lead pipe and one on the 2nd slide. Also a small dent half way down the
Shepherd's Crook of the bell tube.
The two (2) unmarked mouthpieces. One has a bright sound
the other a very nice mellow tone, deeper sound.
I like playing this cornet with the deeper sounding mouthpiece.
This Cornet also comes with a NEW pair of white gloves for practice purposes.
Oils on your fingers can over time eat into the plating.
THE CASE: Outside is average (for it's age) and someone re-lined with green felt not long ago
and is in very good condition. The latches work great and has a new handle.
