I have what has been represented to be Bill Bell's first rotary valve King CC. It is not the horn that he played on for most of his career, or at the end, the destination of which is discussed elsewhere in this thread; though it is very similar to that horn (the bell on this horn is slightly smaller, and the third slide extends downwardly, rather than up). I have a picture of him playing what appears to be this horn with the Longines Symphonette in 1954. He later sold the horn to Phil Cadway who played it for many years.
