Armstrong Alto Flute has model 40-20990 stamped at top of body. From what I can tell, this model was manufactured in the 1970s. Included is a straight head and a curved head. Heads do not have any stamps indicating solid silver, so I assume it is silver plated. I just had the pads replaced. No dings or dents. Very minor surface wear and finger prints. The flute plays fine with a rich tone. Includes hard case. Case has slight rusting to corner plates and latches -- cleaned up, but still a bit dull. Otherwise, case is in good shape. Hinges are strong. Latches hold tight. Cleaning rod and cleaning string included.
