Selmer 1940s ‘Padless’ Eb Alto, #27475 (Archived)
Martin 1954 ‘The Martin Alto’ Eb Alto, #190k (Archived)
It arrived in original pads, corks, and brown felts that prove such. (2 pads were changed). #190k dates it to 1954, player/collector's delight, Finish: Gorgeous Original Lacquer. Sticker is intact on the rear tube. It is original lacquer although there are a few runs in the lacquer from the factory. Perhaps there was a new worker that day in 1954. I noticed 1 ding near low C, a minor 'dent' on the backside too. All of this is being picky because the rest of the sax is so pretty!
CASE: Original, orange, Martin case in excellent shape to match.

SOLD - (Sound File added) Original lacquer showing signs of use but this arrived with sticker intact(COOL!), and looks like a solder repair needed on Eb guard. These have a Great/fat/lush tone, nice ergos. Nice early ser # 169K matches on both the neck and body. Early ones are know for fatter, more resonant tones. The sax is overall in good shape with 80% lacquer. Some small dings will burnish out.
