Professionally cleaned, polished, and sanitized with new key button felts and new valve felts. New water key corks. Gold plating at 94% with minor wear near the back of the piston casing and various high touch points. What Conn said in 1913:"The claim made for the New [Invention] Circus Bore Cornet is that it has a better and more correct scale throughout its entire compass, that it plays easier and has a bigger nad more powerful voice-like quality of tone. That it is better balanced, handles easier and that its tone responds more quickly and more readily. The performer can do more on the Circus Bore Cornet and last longer when doing it than with any other Cornet. " Bore size: .484 (large). Silver plating is underneath the gold plating as well.

Very Good
