Info on an old flute?

Irish Flute
1

So I was cleaning my neighbor’s basement (preparing for a garage sale) and came across an old flute that looks kinda cool. It has 6 holes plus a mouth hole and 8 lever-thingees that open or close some more holes. There is some lettering on it that is kinda hard to make out, but it looks like “RUDA_______B (or maybe R)OSE” (some letters are very faint). It seems to be in perfect shape and the case is old but close to perfect, too. The elderly lady wants to sell it to me for $100… Should I jump on this or pass it up?

This is some kind of joke, right? :wink:

It’s worth nothing, but I might need it to make wood powder, maybe you could pass me the contact? :poke:

Up there with the Coltrane whistle tapes

I REALLY wish this was a true story!!! I’d have given her $150 with no questions asked!
