Question
I have a vintage Victory trumpet, they say these are Chinese, but mine is made in Italy, are there two kinds of Victory Trumpet

Answer
Hi Keith,

I have been with this forum for a long time and you are the first inquiry I have ever had from good old Australia.

Keith, I have no knowledge of an Italian-made Victory trumpet. That's not to say they wouldn't have been made there. I am aware of some Victorys that were made in the U.S., so it's quite probable that yours was made in Italy as you say, maybe under licence. Most of them were Chinese.

Can you give me any further information so I can be a little more exact for you? Are there any other inscriptiuons on the bell trhat might be helpful?

Unfortunately the quality of the Victory is not very high and they can be found in places like eBay for very low prices, vintage or not.

I hope some of this helps.

Cheers,

Frankie
