    You will need to post photos for anyone to assist you on this Curtis.

    Most Wurlitzer model saxophones are stencils made by Conn, Buescher or Martin. Photos will be required to ID the manufacturer, condition, and value.

      Hi Curtis-

           Michael is exactly right. Wurlitzer not only stenciled saxophones from Conn, Martin and Buescher, but they also imported many saxophones from France in their early years. You see lots of Martin stencils that came out of the 1920's. However, the date of Dec 8 1914 would imply Conn. It would be great if you could post up a quick photo.

       

      Cheers,

           Mark Overton
