The reserve is probably more than my net worth! Beautiful horn.

Rare factory silver AND a post war with the leftover from prewar dual leadpipe.

Beautiful, yes! But he writes a book about it when we all know that one blow is worth a billion words. I got tired and I didn't even read it.

Yes, although there is some good information included, the listing is a bit wordy considering the potential buyer was likely sold on the listing title alone.

My only hope is winning a sizable lottery prize between now and November 3rd.

Yeah, it's pretty wordy, especially the 11 fairies thing, but it's better than the usual post about "genuine brass, needs polished" or other ignorant nonsense.

I really appreciate when they tell me a horn is 21 inches long and the latches on the case don't work well.

"This trumpet measures approx. 19" in length x 6" wide x bell dia. 4 1/2". Finish has dents, rub wear, rust, & scratching. Comes with hardshell carrying case."

Actual quote. Now I know exactly what I'm bidding on!

Generally speaking, the more information the better, and this seller's subject is certainly worthy of a verbose listing.
