In the last week I've been talking with Jim Brennan of San Francisco. At one time he purchased a 6/4 Holton BBb from Mr. Jacobs, with the help of his friend Floyd Cooley. Jim traded this horn to Dave Franke of Vancouver, Wa. This was about 7 or 8 years ago. Whether Dave still owns the horn I don't know, but I suspect not since Dave is a constant wheeler and dealer of horns. I had a few chances to play the Holton and loved it emmensely. It played almost as if the spirit of Mr. Jacobs was present with the horn.
