I am reliably advised (by Markneukirchen Museum) that I am the lucky owner of the oldest know numbered Tenor Sax by O. Adler & Co.
It is in superb playing condition and I believe it is an LP horn judging by tone hole distances. It is being played against a tuner to confirm tomorrow. Would you be interested to see pictures? Its serial number is 1075 which dates it around 1915.
Thankyou Paul
Yes, I would love some photos.
I will email you and you can reply to me with the photos.
Years ago I bid on an extremely old Oscar Adler tenor. I was rather heart broken when I lost the auction. I would have to look it up in the gallery since I kept the photos, but it had all its original paper work; case; MP; accessories. Everything. IIRC, it was circa 1920. It was in remarkable condition.
It would have been quite the old-timer for my German collection. Sadly, I have not found another OA tenor that has interested me as much since. (Yes, I am fussy.) 😉
