F.A. Reynolds Trumpets, Model [E]
While the engraving style on this trumpet matches the other F.A. Reynolds models, the body design is that of the Emperor model, introduced in 1947. The one-piece brass outer valve casings are especially distinctive and do not match the design used on Reynolds' original trumpets (compare here) or subsequent Professional line.
This example should not be considered canonical to the F.A. Reynolds model line until another example can be found.
