Thos Reynolds - 43 Chapel St, Salford


"Mainly a 'brass band' shop but still one of the oldest music shops in town based in Salford. My Cousin Tom Cheadle worked there as an apprentice repairer from age 14 and stayed in the instrument business with Reynolds, Barratts and 'Band Instrument Supplies' in Leeds till he retired 6 years ago.

Bought my first electric from there (S/H) sadly I never learnt to play it and can't remember what happened to it.

I have bought (lkng time ago) two instruments (trumpets?) one is engraved with T. REYNOLDS Senr & sons 43 chapel street Salford and it has number 106 engraved. The other one wich is larger is engraved with B then a engraved anchor folowed with a F. The number engraver in the middle from the three is 2039. This looks like early numbers ton me. Does anyone have more info. Please respond!

Dear Tom. Much missed. I enjoyed his friendship from the mid 1950s when I used to go to the shop with my dsd and made a mess of a cornet with some polish....
