Need Schopper tenor trombone photo

Hello everyone！I want to buy a schopper tenor trombone recently. Can someone send me a photo of this brand's trombone?
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.Posaunus wrote: Mon Mar 04, 2024 3:16 pm An early 1900s trombone "in B flat" will not be at the same pitch as a modern European instrument (A=442Hz or A=443Hz).
Thanks for the correction!SamBTbrn wrote: Mon Mar 04, 2024 3:59 pmMmmm, that's not totally true.

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)
