I’ve got a trombone we rented back in the 70’s and am trying to figure out who manufactured it.

I would say maybe Holton, since the handgrip area is chrome plated. Maybe?

I'm thinking Allied. They started building trumpets, cornets, trombones, and marching brass for DEG in the early 1970's; there's no reason to think that they didn't build stencils for other companies, too.

Thanks JohnL, but it was already well worn before we started using it. My thought was mid to early 60's.
Hornbuilder, I was thinking Holton or Getzen.
