Seems like it needs a valvejob.

And, to get that done well will take several hundred pesos, scheckles, or even gold dubloons.

Not on the website, seems like it might have been sold.

I've said it before but it still rings true, there's just something so charming about fixed recording bells.

"Several hundred" will be more accurate if you make it more than a thousand of them, and that's just the valve work itself (not including removal and installation of the valveset, etc.)
FWIW, the demise of Anderson's piston overhaul department has radically changed my criteria for buying old horns to salvage their valvesets.
