Description: | A page from a Boosey & Co. woodwind instrument catalogue from the 1920s. Military bands were important customers for many London-based instrument makers in the early decades of the 20th century. Boosey & Co. produced a range of woodwind instruments that were specifically designed for outdoor use, and these were actively promoted to prospective military clients. This page is taken from a woodwind instrument catalogue and shows endorsements from two of London's most important military bands; the Band of the Irish Guards and the Band of the Royal Air Force, now known as the Central Band of the RAF. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Horniman Museum and Gardens | Rights holder: | Horniman Museum, London | Subjects: | work Identity and Icons | Temporal: | circa 1920 | Source: | Horniman Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
