c. 1952 Indiana by Martin Tenor Saxophone. Repair Project

Description

It is a tenor saxophone. The bell stencil is impossible to read;
all I can read is "The." Serial number is 43,490. But a very knowledgeable eBayer assures me that it is an Indiana by Martin, circa 1952.
It is being sold as a repair project.
Cosmetically, the finish is very worn. There are scrapes and scratches everywhere. There are dents around the bow.
Some of the mechanisms are missing such that two of the tone holes are wide open. The keys that are on it all seem to work. The pads are old, but not in terrible condition.
There is no case, but it will be well-wrapped for shipping.
Questions?
It will be well packed with plenty of new 1/2" bubble wrap and shipped in a stout cardboard instrument box.
