Ooh, with kranz, too!

I've always wanted an old beater 101 or 101 stencil to mess around with.

I'm guessing that it was in ok shape. Virginia Beach takes music seriously. I was in PD for AP Theory with many of their teachers. Students there aren't allowed to take AP until they pass 2 YEARS of theory!

I actually won this auction and picked it up from a band director friend in the area. It's a little rougher than the pictures let on, but really not too bad. I'm not sure that it will stay with me long term, but it will be much nicer by the time it's headed back out.
