1915 Martin Eb - SOLD!!
$500 takes it.
College professor/tuba major owned, located near Brainerd, MN. He also has a 1914 Holton 4 valve silver Eb Raincatcher, missing some neck pieces, I believe. I'll post that separately when I get all the photos, or just call him and buy 'em both and save me the trouble!
PM your preferred contact info to me, I'll have Steve contact you.

Re: 1915 Martin Eb
Nice! That is the larger of their two Eb tuba offerings. It shares the bell and bottom bow with their “Medium” BBb.
I’d be interested in seeing a picture of the raincatcher!

Some old Yorks, Martins, and perhaps a King rotary valved CC

Re: 1915 Martin Eb
Tim showed me this a few days ago, and if I had the $ it would be coming home with me. I'm even driving to/through Brainerd today!

Re: 1915 Martin Eb
That looks like it's in pretty good shape! Very cool horn!

Re: 1915 Martin Eb
Ooh, somebody buy it quick! It sounds like you may have safe transport to the Twin Cities - if there's room to spare in the Bortmobile. Brett, it may be time to consider that Tahoe, Suburban, or even Sequoia. Those boys aren't getting any smaller, you know.

Re: 1915 Martin Eb
No they aren't! And once they have enough of their own "stuff"...! At least my older son is getting into curling, and not hockey... Talk about "stuff"!
4 people and 1 dog... May have to pull a Romney to get the tuba and everyone back home. A little cold for that today though...
