A Girl and Her Sax





Found inside a generic cardboard photo folder without a photographers name, studio mark, or date. Written on the outside of the folder in pencil, "Georgina Harriet Walker 4 yrs. old." Adolphe Sax, a Belgian instrument maker invented the Saxophone in 1841, one of the few instruments named after a person. The Sax in this photo seems to be sized for a child.

    I recognize this look. It says, "But I wanted to play the viooooolin."

    It might possibly be a soprano sax with a curved neck.
