Don't see many of these. Looks like a attic find.

Cool.

Seller also has a top action Worcester Conn Eb.

And Princeton doesn't seem too far north of the cities?

Man, it seems more tubas pop up in Minnesota than in California! What the heck! Another horn for Bort!

(We have some tubas for sale here, but it is usually the same stuff relisted ad nauseam.)

No sousaphones for me, thanks... but yeah, it's been a lucky time for me for sure. Not just for my location, but for all you folks who keep telling me about them.

My own Conn Worcester Eb (front action) is probably the brother tuba to his. I paid $30 for it at an estate auction here in the cities last year... So getting anywhere near his price (in any condition) isn't going to work. It's a neat little tuba, but not much value in it.

I also barely lost out on an old Miraphone at another estate auction.

Again, I think I've just been lucky.

I should check out the rest of the stuff this seller has.
