Hmm...I wonder who's selling that? I don't know anyone with a silver King sousaphone. Now I'm curious!

Good price, and looks to be in good condition!

That sousa was made during the Seeburg era (mid 1960s to circa 1980) --> post-H.N.White / pre-UMI.

Imo, King tubas/sousas were good/well-made up thru the UMI era (1980s to circa 2000) :cheers:
