Hello -- I was hoping someone might know a little bit of the history for my horn/mfr. I play cornet, but a few weeks ago I picked up this trompete and am having a great time playing it. This is my first go on a rotary trumpet so its hard for me to compare to other horns, but plays well for me. The intonation is good and plays 440/Bb and slides can pull to 'A'

The spelling/initials may be slightly off, but this seems to be it, but perhaps someone has some insight.

From the case markings, it looked like it was played with a short shank trumpet mouthpiece.

There is a 4, 5, 6 marking on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd valve. Length of horn is 12 1/2" and bell is 5"
