      For several years our band also conducted a brass repair workshop. I have a number of items left over from that workshop that may be of use to a repair shop. As noted in the photos, these items include, from right to left in the photo, (all are stripped of any lacquer)

      Olds Ambassador #575536 - This is a complete, assembled unit with matching numbers. It has no visible damage and could be put back into playing condition.

      Olds Ambassador #359057 - Complete with matching numbers, needs some braces resoldered and other minor work.

      Olds Ambassador #468195 - Mostly complete - some damage (lead pipe), missing some small parts such as valve caps. Needs reassembly

      Olds Ambassador #973262 - body and slides (no valves)

      Olds Ambassador #454718 - valve body and sljdes, with valves but no small parts.

      2 ea Olds Ambassador bells - reasonably straight and dent-free

      1 ea Bundy (Bach) bell - shows signs of rework

      Various leadpipes:
      6 have tags which show the size
      8 have no tags (one appears to be from an Ambassador - there is also a receiver (not shown) which is cracked but repairable.

      I am open to suggestions about how these could be of use to someone and what they are worth.

      I suppose they could be used for repairs or to make a "frankenhorn" by combining with other parts.

          I think $200 + shipping would be adequate. BTW, on reviewing the items, I found that a couple of the trumpets still have lacquer on them - just for clarification.
