The Pan American Trumpet Model List
This page is a Pan American trumpet model number list.
I have included an extra column to indicate the year(s) when the instrument was (at least) in use. If both the "Year Introduced" and "Year Discontinued" column is filled in, the "Years Used" column is left blank (no need stating the obvious). Italics indicates "educated guess".
The following list is by no means complete or even correct. If you find an error, or know of a model of trumpet that falls into the criteria mentioned above that doesn't appear on this list or is produced outside the years indicated on this list, please let me know (see main page for e-mail).
Instruments labeled "Stencil Line" were produced as stencils for other companies and sold under the name of the company for which the instrument was produced. These were not sold under the Pan American name. Instruments labeled "Regular Line" were sold under the Pan American name. Instruments not labeled either way were probably sold under the Pan American name.
