Happy Canuck is an unknown quantity at this point
Well, I lose my bet! I was concerned that I'd never see my Olds A6 Shepherds Crook Cornet again. But It's Home!!

Got a message from John last week, and the horn was picked up today.

Communications HORRIBLE, Quality (gold plate) FANTASTIC.

I remember the line from a high school poem "We Only Serve Who Stand And Wait". The wait was painfull, the result is excellent.
