Two-headed Rudall & Rose on auction May 31

fwiw right here

Has a few minor needs (cracks) but overall looks interesting.
Not sure why the two heads as both seem to be of same length, but clearly the case was made for this.
Love the longer Bb right-hand touch, and the keys to low B.

They say #3703......might/might not have the quattrefoil since this is when they sort of start showing up regularly.

Upper quatrefoil clearly visible on footjoint stamp in one of the auctioneer's photos, David, and I think faintly on the lower body stamp. There's no clear shot of the main stamp or those on the barrels, but I'd be surprised if they're not all there.
I respect people's privilege to hold their beliefs, whatever those may be (within reason), but respect the beliefs themselves? You gotta be kidding!
