This is a rare and desirable example of an original silver-plated vintage Conn New Wonder I pre Chu Berry curved soprano saxophone manufactured in 1922, #64XXX. His sax is in well-worn used condition with plenty of wear and scratching from many years of playing, but everything works great, and it is set up to good playing adjustment on mostly older pads, with necessary recent replacements. Photos #5 and 6 show the neck was resoldered, no effect on the great sound of this sax. This sax has plenty of projection and vintage edge.
