Yes, those old Boehm oboes are still around and I have some. However, they were built with thinner walls and a bore that promotes a brighter sound, not the way modern oboes are built. You also might find that they are less user friendly for fingering than you might like. I find the modern oboes easier to finger. There may not have been a modern oboe made with Boehm fingering.
Good luck!
