Subject: Found my Horn
I have an Ideal Euphonium #10395 as pictures with a case shown within the catalogue. It still plays very good although I need to work on the case and its leather. Wonder where I can find the value altho I probably won't sell since I like to play it. I phone a melloophonium back in the 60s in college and found it easy to play. I guess it has to be at least 120 years old since the date of the catalogue shows it but how long did they make these instruments that are shown in the catalogue. I know style does not change a lot but how can one tell?

This is great. Not just that it was preserved, but because it has several images of the workshops producing the instruments, and various information for forming bands, and lists of the music popular at the time.

It's so funny to think that way back then, there were still parents hollering "Turn that Garbage down!!"
