elkhart saxophone

i have a silver elkhart sax that i bought last year and i cant seem to find any information on it. some key features includes a G# trill key between the F and F# key as well as an alternate Eb key next to the low C# key. serial number is in the 4000 range. I'd like any information if possible

    Does it say The Elkhart? What is engraved on both the bell and the back underneath the thumb rest? Pictures?

        The Elkhart Band Instrument Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Buescher which made low end student quality instruments.
