I think I saw a post a while ago in which the writer said they were collecting Conn mouthpieces and wanted a Conn #3. It seems I have one...sort of. I have had this mouthpiece since high school in the 50's, but I have no particular attachment to it. It has a number of small dings, but is playable. The shank is turned down for a small european receiver. When I decided to learn Eb, I bought a cheap Holton Eb pea shooter, which had a small receiver. Rather than spend time and money acquiring a small shank mouthpiece, I had this currently unused Conn #3 turned to fit. So...

If you have any interest, post here or send me email. I can take pictures and send them if desired. If you want to buy it, I'll consider any offers. I would definitely take in trade a playable Conn #2, or UMI #2. I bought a UMI #2 for another horn I had at one time and, since then, I keep trying other 'pieces and returning to the UMI #2.
