Identifying Old Sax
Hello,
I don't have a lot of experience with saxophones, but I wanted to find out a little more about an old alto saxophone that belonged to my great-grandfather. After some research, (if I'm not mistaken) I finded out that it was built around 1890 and its brand is "Evette-Schaeffer". Also, a friend of mine told me it had a "double octave key". I play clarinet, piano and other instruments, simply not saxophone, so you can use musical jargon :)
Does anybody could give me a few infos about it?
Here are some photos of it.
Any help would be appreciate. If it helps, my great-grandfather lived all his life in the province of Quebec, Canada.
Thanks !
