An elderly relative of mine has given me two old instruments to sell for him. The first one is an Armstrong piccolo. The only markings I can find are the name with Elkhart under it and the number C4271. I would like to knew the age and if it has any value. The other is a Buescher Silver Clarinet 1927 W/tunable barrel. Serial number is 234835 along with True Tone on the under side. I have very little experience at this type of thing. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

with the piccolo i'd post about it on the flute forum (there are some very knowledgeable members on there)
