    Sounds like you have a late Chu Berry alto. Is your sax silver? Can you post up a couple photos here? At 242xxx the altos have art deco engraving. Check out the Conn section of the museum on this web site. There's a nice c-melody example of the art deco engraving.  Altos changed design at about 244xxx into what's known as transitional model before the 6M naked lady.
