low priced Besson sousaphone (missing valves, etc)

[bloke]

OK if missing valves but otherwise complete. Looking for original worn condition and no cracks, with good condition valve casings.

(If I can’t find one of these cheap, I have the parts laying around to stick together an old Conn 14K for myself, including a nice rebuilt valve section. I guess, I’m just interested in a Besson because they are goofy and offbeat.)

note:
I’m currently interested in this as of the date of this posting, and at a low price as a parts grade instrument. Please understand that several months from now it’s possible that I may well have lost interest in this, yet forgotten to delete this post.

I’m getting sleepy. I read this as a, “low priced Besson saxophone”.
