    1932 Alto - the "I" is maybe an "L"? Have any pictures to email me?

      thanks for the dating. I'm sorry i don't have a picture but if the "I" is in fact an "L", then the bottom _ of the "L" hasn't been stamped properly. can you give me an estimated value?

        Without pictures, it's hard to tell. Could be anywhere from $200 to $1500 depending on it's condition. Do you know the history of it? Describe what the finish looks like. Is there lacquer worn off? Are there any scratches or dings? Email is better for this sort of dialogue. [email protected]
