An orger sent me a note about the sax, it's a Grafton Saxphone molded from plastic and gained famed because it's the sax Charlie Parker played through much of his career... til his death. Grafton's were produced for about a decade 1950 cira 1960/62. Because the process of making them was invovled, the only made plastic alto saxphones. It's the first sax I owned, I still own it.
