Palmer® Flute (not Paris Series) - Any info please!

[FairfaxBuddha]

I played the flute when I was younger and really enjoyed it. I have no idea what happened to the flute I learned on. but I stopped by a flea market yesterday and found a Palmer® flute that has a small dent on the back side for $10. It is silver/nickel and has a serial number. The pads are almost new and I wanted to find out any information about it. It has a simple case that may or may not be the original as it has no identifying markings on it.

I've looked on the internet and I can only find a "Palmer® Paris Series" version on eBay. This one does not say "Paris Series" below it. I can't even find out anything about the Palmer® Company.

Any idea if it is worth refurbishing and getting the dent taken out?

Well, if the case is in good condition, that's worth $10. The flute though, I've never heard of it, but with a little creativity and hard work, it would probably make a good lamp.
