Re: Portland CL: Holton Eb
Valves are in rough shape but it’s priced okay for a project. Probably a decent CC or BBb to be made with that bell and possibly bottom bow.
Dillon/Walters CC (sold)
Meinl-Weston 2165 (sold)

Re: Portland CL: Holton Eb
What's the story on the quilted appearance, on the bow guard?
At first this seemed like it might be original, but at a second look, likely added on top of the original bow guard during a repair, cut along the edges so it could bend around the curve without a lot of forming work.
