    Description

    The item up for sale in this auction is a William S. Haynes solid silver flute.  The serial number is 353xx, which places the date of manufacture in 1966.  I am no flute expert and had to do some fairly extensive research to figure out what I have.  It appears to me that the tone holes are drawn, not soldered.  It comes with a C footjoint and has offset G keys.   The flute is made of solid silver, and is a plateau model.  The pads all appear to be fresh and the return springs are in great shape too.  I did notice that some of the cork on the bottom of 2 or 3 keys is missing.  With the one exception of a little missing cork the flute looks to be in mint condition.   Check out all of the pictures and see it for yourself.  If you have any questions, I'll be happy to try and answer them.  Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding!!!
