Anonymous • Austrian? • c.1880s

While quite similar to one of  the Distin-Boosey  pocket designs, this unmarked pocket has some interesting bracing. Unfortunately, the valves leak badly, so its playability cannot be determined.  I will probably have them overhauled at some point, as the overall quality of the instrument is good.
