Schopper was active in the late 19th Century. Where were you planning to buy this instrument?

Google search Robert Schopper Posaune.

An early 1900s trombone "in B flat" will not be at the same pitch as a modern European instrument (A=442Hz or A=443Hz).

Mmmm, that's not totally true. I have two Ullmann trombones from that time (Schoppers competitor in Leipzig from around the turn of the century) and while they are a tad on the high side, they play at a solid A = 443hz maybe pushing up to 444hz with the wrong temperatures.

In saying that, there may be some that are slightly higher. But certainly not in high pitch like the English brassband trombones of the time (A=466hz)

There is a Facebook Group on Deutsche Posaune / German trombones. If you search within the group via Facebook’s search function, you get to several posts on Schopper trombones including photos.
