I wonder if this instrument is from Getzen in Indiana. They make decent brass instruments; my sister has one of the original Getzen Eterna Severensen models of Bb trumpet. I think they were in Elkhart, IN, if I recall correctly. If they are the same company, there may be more hope that it is a quality instrument, or at least worth a repadding to get into playing shape. Of course, it would need a new mouthpiece, reeds and a ligature, but you can get all of that for a beginner for well under $50.
By the way, welcome to the Clarinet board, Willow!
