The Tuba John Van Houten was using in this photo is a Miraphone 181 valve F tuba and he sold that tuba to one of my friends. He now plays on a firebird.

Strange! I can clearly see the Neptune engraving on the bell, but that 5th valve slide is nothing like I have ever seen on a Neptune
Is that a custom flat two tone 5th valve slide fitted?
