Not a pawn shop story , but a good find never the less.........earlier this year I started playing with a local community band. They were in the throes of changing fromm brass band to concert band instrumentation(a pity) anyway they had several cornets surplus to requirements. I had a look at the horns and found a brand new unused 1978 Boosey and hawkes "imperial" cornet. A lovely instrument with a satin silver body and bright silver lpate slides. Nearly 30 years old and never played, with original unmarked case, Lyre, mpc and warranty card. A deal was done and I came away a very happy little cornet player!
Cheers
