     I have a nice Conn Victor B flat cornet that I am interested in 
selling to the right buyer. 
 
  The cornet was a gift from my grandmother, and she says it was given 
to her by a US Navy sailor after WW2. The number stamped on it is 
308605.  It was recently serviced by Dick Albright at Best instrument 
repair in Oakland, California, Dick indicated it dates from 1935 
 or 1936. 
 
  The horn in in near pristine condition - a couple of wear marks on the 
finish where the fingers rest, etc. It comes in the original case, with 
the original #4 mouthpiece, cleaning stick, music holder and mute. 
 
  I want $500 for it. I live in Lafayette, California If you are 
interested, please email me or call to discuss it. 
 
 thanks
