[Trombone-l] Another King thing

[Richard Barrett]

Thanks for the information.  Looking at the rate of increase in the serial
numbers in previous years e.g. around 25,000 -45,000 over each five year
period, it would appear that the leap from 511751 in 1975 to my 726485 must
have taken a lot more than five years and dates my 4b much later, or is
there something I have missed.  Assuming the rates of increase to be
approximately 25,000 to 45,000 over a five year period my horn would be
dated much later and into the 1990s.  Does that sound right do you think?
Regards
Richard

Richard,

I agree with previous post.  The 6-digit number is your serial number.
