The 3rd valve slide has a trigger, rather than the more common finger ring found on most of today's instruments. Everything works as it should - ALL the slides are free, and the valves are fast and quiet. The bell is inscribed "INVICTA distributed by SELMER London, Foreign" which indicates that this trumpet was made for Selmer outside the UK, most probably in France. It has a silver bell, while the rest of the instrument is lacquered. As for the trumpet itself, it really is in lovely condition.

Disappointingly, the guarantee, although it has the serial number on it, isn't dated which is why we can't be certain of the date of manufacture.
#Selmer trumpet value plus
The trumpet was like a time capsule - it came in the original Selmer case (still in very good condition) with a load of old music (pretty crumpled as it's been folded and kept in the case) plus the original Selmer Guarantee (which was for an impressive 10 years).
he bought it several years ago with the intention of playing it regularly but then went and bought a Besson Sovereign cornet as well, which is what he now plays in the band. So what's with this lovely vintage trumpet? It belongs to one of the cornet players in Tutbury band who has a passion for instruments,and has built up a fine collection over the years.He's finally decided the time has come to rationalise things, and has asked me to sell this on his behalf (there'll be more to follow shortly, including a lovely Josef Lidl double French horn, a flugel, more trumpets and cornets, and fantastic 1920s Conn silver plated curved soprano sax!) Anyway, back to the trumpet. Serial No: 32073 (which dates it to around 1962, as far as I can tell) If you've seen any of my previous listings, you'll know that I specialise in selling ex display and ex lease instruments and accessories, surplus stock as well as items which have been returned by customers who have changed their minds - in other words, things that are NEW or NEARLY NEW, and which represent excellent value for money. Apart from some discoloured patches of lacquer it looks almost like new, with NO dents or scratches - amazing for a trumpet of this age. SELMER INVICTA Bb TRUMPET in wonderful, original condition This vintage trumpet (approximately 50 years old) is in excellent cosmetic order,and in perfect playing condition.
