Interesting in that this is in great shape with rebuilt valves. I think most would rather it be in really good shape, tarnished, and with leaky valves so that the horn becomes sacrificial for some frankentuba project.

Interesting that anyone would spend the money on valve work etc., for a 3V Eb. Must have had something going for it.

The B-flats (ancient Holton and York - virtually identical) of the short/19-inch-bell size - offer extraordinarily fine intonation characteristics.
