A family member just gave me this trunk and I know very little about it. It has the original tag inside with the company, but I didn't see a date. The only part of the trunk not intact is the leather straps.
This Saura Keiki Seisakusho sextant is type SM 2408, #72-17-15. Mfg # 710084. Date 12-71. It is in excellent condition and as far as I know, never been used. Given to me by my now deceased brother in law, Lt. Colonel in the USAF, WWII, Korea and Vietnam. The wooden case is in excellent condition with minow scratches on the outside surface. Have not made up my mind to sell it.
I'd like to get an appraisal for three antique clarinets I inherited. I have a possible buyer for these instruments, but I have no idea what they might be worth, nor do I know anything about their history. Here are links for the photos:
