ten-year "anniversary" post (shown to me by fb)

original picture caption wrote:two 35 year old tubas and one 25 year old tuba...once again (no, not made to look "like new", but) un-smashed, mechanically repaired, and "brought back from the dead". I wonder how long before they're back lookin' and workin' like they did last week...??

Any chance of contacting the owners, whether individuals or institutions, to get "epilogue" pictures?

I tried to remember, but couldn’t remember which school or schools they belonged to. 🥺

I guess, it’s one of those DEG Taiwan knock offs of a King 1140, and a couple of Olds O-99’s…

Since I bothered to drag them into the house, snap a phone pic, and post it, they must have (??) been pretty "crunchy" and mangled, prior.
