The brand York is known for producing high-quality brass instruments and this cornet is no exception. The key is Bb and the exact year of production is 1917, making it a valuable piece of history. Whether you're a brass player or a collector, this vintage cornet is something special.


Ready to play.  Serviced 3/2024. All valves and slides operate as they should and it plays nicely.The case is in fair to good shape, being over 100 years old.  All latches work, and there is a new leather handle.


How cool to be playing this antique while your other band members are playing stock instruments!
