Dear Colleagues,

I am researching some British brass instrument makers, and am trying to
locate examples of their work surviving in bandrooms or in collections.

I would be glad to hear if you have or are aware of any brass
instruments by:

 C. Boos
 Boosey & Sons
 Boosey & Co
 Boosey & Hawkes (up to 1952, bell serial number below 182842)
 H. Distin (British period of work only)
 Distin & Co
 D.J. Blaikley or A. Blaikley

The basic information needed is model, bell serial number and pistons
serial number.
