Hi-
Here is a German WW1 postcard from 1916 of a soldier & his tuba--any idea of the maker? Thanks-
Mark

Maybe a Cerveny?

BBb tuba 4RV with a pitch adjustment loop in the main tuning slide. Somewhat odd for the year of 1916, as the pitch reform from HP to LP in the German spoken areas was in 1920.

My guess is a Bohland & Fuchs BBb.
