FROM ” THE MARTIN STORY ” BEST INFO OUT THERE ON MARTIN SAXES:
>Martin Master, aka Type-writer saxophones Made 1929 – 1932 (Ser# 94K – 102k) Classification: Professional

Officially called “Master”, this model soon was nick-named “Typewriter” because of the special key-design.

Soundwise however this is a real Martin. Heavy, full bodied, in one word American.

They where only made a short while. (Known serial’s range from 94K to 102K and indicates ’29 – ’32)<
