Spanish Gaita (bagpipes) intricately carved drone is 28 inches long. Traditional ribbon and bag cover are in good condition. Please pardon the poor photo.
A rocking Melodeon by Farley & Pearson, Worcester, Mass circa 1846. Keyboard style. All original Ivory keys present as well as all Ebony keys. Bellows will need some patching. All the wood is in good condition.
Thanks to my friend Steve, I was able to put together the horn with the original case. Echo Bell Cornet by Distin #486 in Bb with A attachment. 2MPs, strange music clip, and many lead pipes. All over decorative engravings. Excellent condition. Gold washed bell. Double spit. Pride of my collection. Presentation case to "Wm. Shellard, Keyport, NJ." I even have the key to the case.
Eb Solo Alto Cornet by Boston MIM. This horn is in excellent condition and ready to play except for the finish, which will require some polishing in order to bring out the original beauty. Almost dent free. Valves are working very well. Original case, MP and a useless extension pipe. Make best offer.
A Cornopean with no makers mark except for the letter G on the middle of the numbered valve casings. Very good condition and ready to play. Less than 1% of the plating is gone. Pigtails are marked SOL and LaB. I assume that this horn can be played in G, A and Bb. Original case, Music lyre and MP. Best offer considered.
String Rotary Cornet in Bb by Boston MIM. Needs repair on 3rd valve string lever and rotor screw. Also, 1st valve crook. Includes case, crook, good extension tube and original MP.
