Set of 3 vintage fanfare trumpets

This is an auction for 3 fanfare trumpets of different pitches They're all from the late 1930's. They have the same styled ornate valves. 1. Eb Soprano from 1935. This slightly pre-dates the true "coronation" trumpets, I think it is an Eb Aida or Bach trumpet. It has a middle section and I think would originally have had a alternative option to put it into the key of D. There are no banner rings. The leadpipe has been altered and is not plated. 2. Bb melody - this is from 1936 and is in good overall condition (same pitch as normal trumpet) 3. Bb Tenor (same pitch as tenor trombone). There are online records of this tenor showing it is one of a batch of 9 for RMSM in March 1937. It is labelled on the bell "RMSM 23". It has an original case. These are all playable, but they probably have more historic value given they are some of the earliest coronation trumpets. I'd prefer to sell these 3 together, but will consider offers for individual ones.
