Purchase & shipping

This is a 1946 Los Angeles Olds Super in original condition.

 The lacquer is worn as shown, but there are  no dents or signs of repairs.  Compression is very good in all 3 valves.  The early post war Supers are considered some of the best Supers ever made and this one was made during a brief period of using all brass (instead of  nickel silver) tone rings.  This is a lightweight trumpet with a medium large bore.

Most Supers of this vintage are missing the original 1st slide saddle or one or more bottom caps/finger buttons are not original.  This one is all original with matching serial numbers throughout.  

This would be a great start for an Olds collection with a minimal investment. It could always be restored in the future, but is a great player just as it is.

This trumpet clean inside and out.  All slides are smooth.  

Engraving is sharp and clear

Does not come with a case.
