This seems quite an exciting find, if you have GBP 13,000 (about $17,333) to spare. The dealer is pretty reputable, so I take it as a genuine sale

Was this one of John's first Alembics? It presumably predates his Explorer Alembics (which I saw him playing in 1979)

This is a good place for it too though, for posterity
Apologies Hieronymous, I've just caught up on my back reading!

No apology necessary! Like I say, this is as good a place as any for the info, especially if someone is searching in the future.
