Interesting that you ask this. I found in my old MP case an early 
Elkhart (3C) without a scratch. Really mint. I cleaned and removed the 
old tarnish. I have not played that piece for 35 years. It really blew 
me away. What a great mouthpiece - at least for me. Does anyone know if 
the Bachs of that vintage are different that the modern ones?
