Interesting German Oboe Circa 1860 HISTORIC COLLECTION

Here's an interesting unbranded oboe, likely German, from circa 1860. Oboe is in nice condition, though the body and bell show some cracks as pictured. Will definitely need an overhaul to be playable.Provenance: The Historic Collection. This is from the collection of a well-known researcher and historian of woodwinds who spent a lifetime collecting rare and unique instruments. We are privileged to offer items from this collection for sale. As this instrument is historically interesting, we have chosen to not do restoration work on it and leave that to the eventual owner. Please feel free to email with any additional questions!
