Olds Super Feather Weight.  Extremely rare model SN 12902 Vintage Los Angeles Make 1940.  Additional markings on on receiver 8LLM.  This is a larger version of the classic LA super.  Has Lightweight 8" Bronze bell with narrow nickel silver tone ring hand engraved "feather super olds weight".  Fluted handslide has shorter stockings compared to standard models.  The slide is also very lightweight.  I believe the bore size is .500/.510 because the inner slide is compatable with an Olds recording outer.  In addition the receiver of Feather Weight bell will not accept a smaller Super slide.  It is unique and extremely rare.  This one is a single owner horn that has been closet kept in super mint condition.  Includes original mouthpiece and case.  We did full shop service including chemical bath.  Everything is perfect on this horn, all original lacquer, not a mark or scratch on it.  It doesn't look like it was played on much.  Indeed quite rare.  Both a rare collectible and the type of horn that you would really want to play on today.  It plays very warm and easy and the slide is fantastic.  In-stock for immediate delivery.
