my guess is it's a Cerveny. I suppose some bands do march with these......

Green vinyl, probably oak...?

Oh wait, there's a tuba back there?!

I'd guess it is not a Cerveny, because of the kranz. It's a gamble moat likely, but I think the jeanz might be a good sign that it was a pretty okay tuba for it's time.

The next to last picture there is some writing on the bell. Can't make it out though. :wink:

Well, that's why I said it was a guess. It has a couple bids, hope one of us gets it.

I'm working on it. Being the cheapskate I am I'm not holding my breath. :)

Looks like a Miraphone.

If someone on here got it, let us know what make it actually was. ( I was too cheap to win the auction) Inquiring minds want to know. :D
