      I ran across this picture of my collection as it sat about 10 years ago. Not counting the bugles, I still have 7 of the ones pictured.

          For our edification, can you identify each of them?

            Ok, to the best of my recollection:

            Top to bottom first column - Kanstul Bb field trumpet, circa 2000, U.S. Regulation field trumpet, Indian copy of a British duty bugle, circa late 1970s, Olds L-12 flugelhorn, early 1970s.

            Second column - 1976 Bach Strad Bb ML 43 trumpet, 1982 Bach Strad C ML 239 trumpet, 1960 Conn 6B Victor Bb trumpet, 1925 Conn 22B Bb/A trumpet, early 1970s Olds Ambassador Eb/D trumpet.

            Third column - 1993 Bach Strad L 184G Bb cornet, 1969 Conn 76A Connquest Bb cornet, 1965 Conn 5A Victor Bb cornet, circa 1870 Henry Lehnert SARV Bb cornet.

              Nice looking collection. At 7 you have the same number as me, but I only have one cornet. The rest are bB trumpets. Which 7 did you keep ?

                I kept the Olds flugelhorn and Eb/D trumpet, the 3 Bachs (Bb, C, and cornet), the Conn 6B trumpet, and the 150 year old Henry Lehnert cornet. In addition to those, I now have an 1890 English Besson A/Bb/C cornet and a 1962 Conn 9A Victor cornet. I suppose that makes 9 cornets & trumpets total, plus the 3 bugles. Two of the bugles are just bookcase ornaments in the den, though - the Kanstul is the only one I ever play, and that’s just for the occasional sounding of Taps.
