Attn @MN_TimTuba -- one of your neighbors is selling a nice looking Sousaphone.

Just a scant hour and twenty away from our friend Tim. Looks pretty nice, although the "brass color" description is generous. Looks sort of like a latte.

Love the brace.

Somebody put it on backwards -- it's actualy a Sdlo. (rare Hungarian brand)

Thanks, guys - looks like a lot of fun, perfect for our summer outdoor concerts on the lake. Sadly, my music room/den is overflowing at present. Otherwise I'd be on this like stink on a hog.
Somebody buy this, then sell it to me when I move!

Assuming good valves, I would really like to own this, but also I know that all those attachments after all these decades probably are brittle even if not damaged right now, and those plastic bell flares are surely very brittle as well. Assuming it hasn't been repainted, the condition hints that the valves are probably fine.
