When I got it last year, it was in a neglected state (dust, rust...). I polished it with deerskin and had it repaired at a wind instrument workshop... Bell body dent removal, adjustment of the rotary valves (cork ⇒ rubber replacement/photo 9), and modification of the 3rd slide by shortening one side for easier insertion and removal (photos 10 and 11). There is a small dent in one place (photo 14/A slide) and a patch in one place (photos 12 and 13), which were there originally. The bell is one-piece (so-called hand-hammered finish/photo 4)... The entire bell has been hammered hundreds of times, making it hard and strong... I think the sound that resonates far and wide is its characteristic♪ Also, since it's unlacquered, I feel nostalgic about the smell of brass^_^ I would like to sell this single horn to someone who appreciates its value. It's comfortable to play, and I love it very much. I polish it with deerskin every day and play it (wipe it... self-satisfaction(^^)), but due to circumstances (age, health, etc.), I'm wondering if it's better to let it go... Rather, I hope it will be used by someone who is active and enjoys playing it. It has been repaired, so you can play it right away. It's probably a vintage Alexander single horn that you can't get anymore. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about minor details due to its age. Brand / GEBR.
