1920s Conn New Wonder Cornet

Hey. I was just wondering if anyone could give me an information on this horn. I've been pretty unsuccessful in getting information about it. Here's what I know: It's a key change cornet, between C and B flat. It came with four mouthpieces, all with shapes reminiscent of a frech horn mouthpiece. One is plastic, and it's really shallow. There's a metal 7C that says Vincent Bach Corp Mt Vernon NY, and the other two metal one's don't have sizes, but one has to be the original mouthpiece. It says Conn-Wonder, and the other says Conn Model. I know it's from the 1920s, and on the bell there are engravings and it says Conn New Wonder Model Elkhart, Indiana. No kickers. Anyone know anything else about this horn? I'd be interested to know it's history. I can't get pictures to upload, my computer is on the fritz, I'll see what I can do to get some up soon. Thanks.

Try the Conn loyalist website. It helped me identify a Conn 10B I just picked up recently.
