Re: Old York Stenciled Trumpet - Any Thoughts? Identification?

Welcome! Great looking horn. I think the 108xxx number is the serial which would take it to the 30's. I don't find a trumpet that looks like that on Horn-u-copia and haven't seen a York product with the 3rd valve on the right side other than the feather touch cornet. I imagine the York expert OLDLOU will comment. Definitely and 20's-30's type design.
