Thanks for the specifics Gary! Do you know if my estimate on date of manufacture is accurate? I couldn't find any serial lists for these.
Awesome! That explains why it plays so easily, and sounds so good. It seems to be very forgiving.
I am using the mouthpiece that came with it, it says Noblet, Paris France, and "2V"
This one looks to be in good condition considering the age, there is one joint that could use a re-cork, and it could probably use a re-pad. But the keywork looks and feels great as far as I can tell. The thumb rest did break at some point, but luckily it didn't pull out, the rest itself snapped off and the plate remains.
I did find this site http://krassmouthpieces.hostei.com/store.htm where a King Marigaux 350 sold for just shy of 1000. Would the 355T bring in much more money, or does it really just depend on condition?
