Hi Nathan,

As cute as your Little Trumpet and Big Trumpet guys are, the thing that 
impressed me were the trumpets themselves.? From the few details I can 
see beneath the hands, these appear to be designs from the mid-1800s.? 
I'm amazed that there are that many of them still in useful condition.
