1978 KING FLUGABONE TRUMPET PROMO AD
M J KALASHEN NEW YORK SERIAL #148
from C 1900. Michael J Kalashen built and imported instruments from about 1890 to 1930 in New York City.
Charles Roth of Strassbourg
made about 1860 – 1870.
The horn is totally original, without damage of any kind and with normal modern (not ascending third valve) configuration.
Bell diameter is 11 3/8 inches (290 mm).
Nine original crooks plus a B-flat coupler.
There’s evidence that the horn has been played very little, the original brass pistons are still tight.
There are no patches and the bell wears a wide garland on the flare.
The body of the horn is stamped “Ch. Roth / a Strassbourg / brevete / S.G.D.G.” Germany gained control of Strassbourg / Strassburg in 1870 and it became illegal to use the French language in business and financial dealings. The French spelling is evidence, we believe, that the horn was built before 1870.
