I have a Selmer tenor sax mouthpiece that I purchased about 15 years ago used at the time. There is no marking on it other than the engraced logo but I would guess it is an E or F. It has scrollwork on the shank but has a selmer logo I have never seen before. It has Selmer written diaganolly across a crest and says Paris (no mention of Henri) Any ideas on age, collectibility and value. I'm not sure I'd quit playing it anyways but I'm curious.

sounds like a selmer soloist with a scroll shank. I don't know what they are worth but they are very sellable

Thanks

Thanks, I looked up some pix and you are probably right. I don't know much about vintage Selmer mouthpieces although I've always played one. MY alto is a soloist but it is engraved on the table. I didn't realize the early ones weren't marked. It's frustrating that the facing isn't stamped on it either.

Can you post a picture?

It's not an early one, it's a late one. Generally referred to as post-soloist scrollshanks.
