You are bidding on a 1947 Frank Holton Jazz Cornet finished in what appears to be a gold lacquer. There is almost an antique green hue to the gold. Simply gorgeous!I couldn't find a professional trumpet player to demonstrate the horn so I asked my (a bit tipsy mind you) Uncle Maurice to give it a go....steady on there fella...! As you can see, he can't quite get started!Includes a Chet Baker sized 6C Bach Cornet Mouthpiece(keep in mind Chet played mostly trumpet) or was his a 6B? Anyways, the mouthpiece is two months old. Built in Elkhorn, Wisconsin - Serial Number 167274Comes in Original Case. I have applied a coat of Renaissance wax to the case to protect it from further deterioration. This is a Jazz players dream horn! Will look fantastic under the spotlights up on stage!I would say the the finish is 85%-90%. Not perfection, but not bad for a 75 year old horn.
