For sale is an incredibly rare and highly sought-after piece of vintage Selmer history: a Pre-Owned 1960s Selmer Paris "Tri-Pac" Leather Case. Designed during the golden era of the Mark VI, this ingeniously crafted case was built specifically for the gigging woodwind doubler. It features dedicated, custom-fit compartments to securely hold an Alto Saxophone, a Bb Clarinet, and a C Flute all in one stylish, compact package. If you want the ultimate period-correct home for your vintage Selmer horns, it doesn't get any cooler than this.
This is the holy grail accessory for the working woodwind doubler, pit orchestra musician, or serious vintage Selmer collector. Hauling three separate cases into a cramped jazz club or theater pit is always a hassle. The Tri-Pac solves that problem with mid-century elegance. It’s perfect for the player who wants to show up to the gig in style, keeping all their essential horns safely organized in one beautiful, vintage leather enclosure.
The "Tri-Pac" Advantage
- The Ultimate Doubler's Setup: Fits a standard Alto Saxophone, a disassembled Bb Clarinet, and a standard Flute case. It keeps your primary instruments incredibly secure and minimizes your load-in time.
- Period-Correct Aesthetic: Built in the 1960s, this case pairs perfectly with a Mark VI alto and a Centered Tone or Series 10 clarinet. It features classic Selmer Paris craftsmanship.
- Fully Functional Zippers: This is the most important feature of this specific case! The heavy-duty zippers on vintage Selmer covers notoriously break over time, but the zippers on this case are fully intact, unbroken, and glide smoothly.
Condition Report
- Exterior: Excellent Vintage Condition. The leather exterior looks fantastic and retains its classic, sophisticated appearance.
- Hardware: As mentioned, the zippers are fully functional and in great shape—a rare find for a case of this age! There is a bit of tearing on the top seam, but nothing that can't be easily repaired.
- Interior & Wear: The plush interior is in great condition to protect your instruments. Please note: there is a tear on the bottom lining of the case where the stitching has come loose, exposing a bit of the underlying wood shell. However, the wood itself is completely intact and structurally sound. This is honest cosmetic wear that does not affect the safety or functionality of the case.
