Extremely rare french cornopean stamped on the bell AG GUICHARD BREVETE A PARIS. Probably the oldest I ever see! I think it was made around 1827, when the firm GUICHARD was established.There are some very insteresting particularities, please see all the pics below:First the general shape: the leadpipe is special, and the bell is connected on the 1st valve.Second, the stamp on the bell is the first used by Guichard.Inside valves are made with wax!And there are a E crook with a big mouthpiece, not a cornet one. I'm sure that there are original because there are stuck in the instrument, I removed them.Unrestored condition but all slides and valves are free. Screw of valves and buttons are missingSold as is, with a E crook, mouthpiece but no case. Please see all the pics and my other items for sale. I can combine shipping.
