Evette Schaeffer alto sax with gig bag saxophone Buffet Crampon ?

Description

NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING. NO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS. I WILL ALLOW LOCAL PICKUP.
This is an alto saxophone. The brand is Evette Schaeffer.
All of the pads appear to be in place. I see nothing broken. It comes with a SaxTech brand padded gig bag. It has the ligature & reed. The sax is engraved with the name Evette Schaeffer and a logo that looks like a crown. There is also a serial number engraved. I see no other markings on the horn, the ligature, or the mouthpiece.
There are some dings, dents & scratches. The bell is slightly bent. All of the pads are in place & everything seems to be working. However, I know very little about sax, and I do not play.
I looked this up on the internet. The Evette Schaffer brand was owned by the Buffet-Crampon company. Buffet started the company in 1866 then Crampon came on board to form Buffet Crampon Co. in 1871.
In 1877 Buffet Crampon acquired the Evette & Schaeffer Company and began to use that name as their instrument brand. Use of the Evette Schaeffer brand ended around 1985. The final serial number used was 35733.
The serial number on this sax is in the mid-35000s, so it may have been made about 1984 or 1985.
