Hi all.As a self-made trumpet player I got my trumpet in 1972. It was already used, in excellent shape. Engraved on the bell you can read: Sterling-Super-Selmer-London-Foreign. It has atriger mechanism in first slide. State of the art construction, and I never intended to change it, and it keeps working wonderful. But I would really want to know about the story of that no more existing model, wich I have no way to find here in Argentina.I live in a far away mountain village.I know there are many experts out there. Thanks a lot. Hornished.
