| Description | Nickel silver TARV OTS with one key to facilitate the high C.
A presentation instrument.
Engraved bell garland with a patriotic eagle with shield. Inside the shield in tiny letters is stamped I. Fiske, Maker.
Gold plaque on bell reads "Presented to C. Rubsam, by the Newark (NJ) Brass Band, September 1, 1853." Christopher Rubsam, born in Thuringia, Prussia (Germany) was a grocer by trade and was the leader of Rubasm&squo;s Newark Brass Band from 1844-1868. Rubsam&squo;s Brass Band played for Abraham Lincoln when he visited Newark, NJ on 20 February 1860 on his way to be sworn in as President of the United States. It is certainly possible that Rubsam performed on this very instrument for Abraham Lincoln.
