Got plain old seller's regret about the King, so it's no longer for sale. Apologies to any who bid. Conn is definitely for sale. Thanks.

WOW

Very low starting bids for some interesting old horns.
I have a King 1291 that I have been using for outdoor venues. It is a great playing horn, but I think the brass is about twice the thickness of any other tuba I have tried. It weighs a ton. This looks in better shape than mine, and I paid $3500 for it. Mine is serial number 178184, only "7" away from this one.
I think the upright bell for the Conn is one I sold on eBay for around $1000. Someone is going to get a steal on both of these unless you get a lot of bidding going.
Good luck with them.

Cool, I like the rotary valved monster tuba.

Very low starting bids also.
