I am glad I read the auction title and description a little better for the Copeland.

Above it says the whistle is "Silver."

In the auction it says it is "Nickle."

That is a HUGE difference last time I checked.

:roll:

Both the "New Seth Gallagher Rosewood keyless flute Donated by Seth" & the "Copland D Nickel Whistle Donated and played by Bill Ochs" come up on Ebay as invalid items. Did they sell, are they still for sale.?

They did not sell the auction was cancelled by e-bay they will be placed up again in a few weeks when we go thru our list of items.
Sorry about this but I screwed it up by bidding on the items myself and eBay not recognizing it was for a benefit saw my bid as pumping up the price and cancelled the auctions.

By the way I recieved the following note from Mike Buke:
Hi,
Michael Burke here. Just a word to say that the whistle you are offering
should be a D Aluminum Narrow Bore (#DAN). You can confirm this by
reading the engraved inscription on the back of the head. It is a very
popular model.
The model number for the low G is (#GLA) in case people want a description.
All the best
Mike

We have had a little confusion with the D whistle on eBay and Mike Burke has sent us the following communications.
"Hi Phil,
I sent Joanie a D Aluminum Narrow bore and a low G Aluminum whistle for Jerry's Fundraiser, so I am confident that this is what it is. It is possible that Joanie might call it a D Aluminum Pro, though.
The inscription on the head will tell you what it really is.
I don't think that there will be a problem, in any case, and if there is a buyer that complains about it, I will exchange the Narrow Bore for the Aluminum Session model if that is what they want. The DAN is our most popular D Aluminum whistle, though and I am sure people will want it.
All the best
Mike"
