Vintage Martin Handcraft Alto Saxophone –
Made in Elkhart, Indiana
Repadded...ready to play
This one is a relacquer. It is a high quality relacquer and it looks like it has never been played since it was relacquered.
This Horn has been sold, sorry.
The lacquer looks new...only marks are fingerprints from handling it.
Picture one . Picture two Picture three. Picture four. Picture five. Picture six. Picture seven.
This has the great Art Deco engraving of City Skyline, Searchlights, Airplanes...
...also heard it called "Mars Attacks" engraving. Not sure why...something to do with Martin/Martian?
My notes say this was made in 1937, but I want to double-check that.
It can't be made the same year as the Old Imperial w/ s/n 111xxx, can it?
