This is a marching bugle with the engraving "Holst" from approximately 50 years ago. The mouthpiece pipe can be removed, but the mouthpiece is screw-on, so other mouthpieces cannot be used. There is discoloration due to age, but no dents or major scratches. How about using it as an object rather than for playing? There is no case, and the item will be shipped by wrapping the main body in bubble wrap and placing it in a cardboard box. Thank you for your understanding and consideration.
