Delinot 4 Valve Sax
This minty, solid brass, pair of children’s toys came up on eBay in September 2010. Like the Camp Saxo France, this Delinot saxophone comes from France, and bears a striking resemblance to the Jazzophone-style instruments.

The saxophone is 10 ½” long.

In the fall of 2011 another one of these minty toys appeared on eBay. Perhaps the only thing more stunning than the condition it was in, was the price it fetched at auction. After 11 bids, this little French toy sold for $114.05. That works out to about $11.40 per inch, for a vintage, French, brass toy made to resemble a Jazzophone.
