Ha! Those are from the school district I'm working for.

Depending on the valves, I might go for that front-action one. If I can convince my wife to let me buy another horn....

Do you recognize the make of that one? Reynolds?

That's my best guess, but I have no idea. Usually I look at the ferrules, but the pictures aren't the clearest or very close.

I don't see a bell side ferrule, and the bell looks suspiciously similar to the Buescher in the other posting. Just a guess though.

I was thinking Buescher, but I was wondering why on earth a public school in Nebraska would still have a Buescher. And I'd expect the Buescher to be silver plated. But you very well may be right!

The front action is not Reynolds. Both Olds and Reynolds had a diagonal brace between the lower 1st and lower 3rd tubing.

I bought the front action Buescher. We'll see what I do with it!
