This is a Estate Sale Find. I cleaned this up the best I can. The Cornet is in great shape the case is not. There is a extra Mouth Piece and some parts. They are silver also. From my research this is the best I can find.THE PICTURES MAKE IT LOOK YELLOW AND TANISHED BUT ITS REALLY REALLY NICE.

American Climax Cornet,produced in Chicago in 1904 by Lyon& Healy. This horn is an earlyand rare instrument. Inscription on the bell: “American Climax” “.A crest, scrolling, and flourishes arethere engraved also. On the second valve case is the serial # 11066. Bore is .458 the best I could measure,15 ½” long w/o MP, 4 5/8” bell, 6 ¼” tall at valves. Finger buttons are mostassuredly original and are Mother of Pearl topped with an interesting conicaltaper to the center of each. Has the adjusting rod, tuning nut, and stop nut allpresent and operational. Mouthpiece is labeled \"Lyon & Healy\". The second mouth piece is unlabled. Really a nice horn and LOOKS GREAT!

Thereis very little silver loss, no denting on the bell. Valves are sooth and clean. I dont think you will ever find another like this one. I will not ship in the case but with the case.
Thisis the ticket to get a historic instrument without spending a bundle! The horn is an impressive antique. It’s a great horn for someone whowants to start playing again, and have history in your hands.
