Aren't those the tubas that they play 24 hrs a day at Guantanamo trying to "break" the prisoners that aren't there?

I can't tell from the picture. Are those in lacquer or silver finish? And are those piston or rotary valves? Are they for sale? What kind of mouthpiece would work best with these fine tubas?
