CONDITION:5 (Fine): The trumpet shows moderate wear, patina, and a great overall look, but this bugle saw a lot of action, and was probably retrieved by a doughboy in the middle of No Man's Land after it had been dropped and possibly even trampled a bit. Still has a great look with little apologies, and it look like it would have quite a story to tell if it could talk...
GUARANTEE:As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
