The part of the original post starting with CL is the craig's list information. The horn is located in southern Minnesota about 3 hours drive south of St. Paul and about the same distance north of Lee Stofer. Here is the listing number:

They said that the first valve tubing was modified to be top pulling, the third valve tubing is straight, but if the fourth tubing is that un-factory, was the fourth valve also an 'addition'? Nothing wrong with that if done well, but... just sayin'
The fourth valve wrap is definitely non-factory. Surely the 4th piston is grafted to the original three piston valve section.
I normally relocate the 1st valve slide to the top and straighten out the 3rd wrap but the added 4th valve is not my creation.... at least not on THIS horn, anyway.

This looks like JC Sherman's old king.

I was thinking it looked like the one for sale by "jeopardymaster" here on TubeNet.

This surprises me, but he has every right to do what he's doing. Your horn is back on the market, JC.
