My trumpet was a Reynolds and my coronet was a Conn. This is great! I played the coronet and trumpet throughout middle school and high school in the 1970's. Thanks for Looking, and Wearing a Mask, to help stop COVID-19! :^) Here's more Info on this Trombone From Worthpoint, and YouTube: Please Stay Safe, always Wear a Mask and Social Distance, and try not to gather together! Let's all Help to Stop COVID-19! :^) Thank you for looking, all comments are welcome, and information is appreciated! :^D I have more information from Worthpoint, that I post in Comments later! All of the Serial Numbers match, but I couldn't find one Just like it so not sure of the year it was made. The Trombone was real dirty, could hardly move the Slide, but I thought that it was still a nice Wall Hanger, The price was right so I bought it! After I got it home I researched it, then decided to clean and polish it, everything slides and comes apart, and after polishing the Black Mouthpiece I found the makers name and size number. and on the other side it's engraved Bennie Chappell(Owner, probably, or Engraver?).
On one side of the round Disc on top it's engraved C.G. and where it was made Elkhart Ind., it also has a Nude Woman standing on, or beside a Swan, and lots of detailing all around. Trombone, I didn't think too much about it, because it was still dark out, and didn't look like much, but when I looked closer with my flashlight, and saw the engraving all over the Horn, I got interested, because I could see that it was done in a late 1800 to early 1900's style, which included the Makers Name C.G.
