| Saxs patent of 1845 focused on saxotombas rather than saxhorns. Saxotrombas were only made in alto and tenor sizes and were narrow bore. This is one of the earliest surviving examples.

| Kenton: I find this horn curious, with the early manufacture date, the plain engraving and the mechanical linkage.
Pryorphone: Well, considering that Conn, Ltd didn’t come into being until 16 years later, I find that serial number to be very suspect...

| Pryorphone: pre-9C [Superior Wonderphone 3 Valve Eb - Front Action Valves - High & Low Pitch]
Wonderphones were bell-front
Note the high-pitch tuning tuning slide on the horn, the low pitch slide is stored in the case. I am sure that on each valve slide there are markings engraved for the low pitch setting.
