I tried to attach a photo but, as the moderator noted, attachments are not working. I am located about a half hour north of Ann Arbor, MI. Please email me directly for more information. Thanks.

You can host the pictures somewhere and hyperlink to them, or if you want to e-mail me photos (thevillagetuba(at)gmail(dot)com) I can link to them here.

EDIT: Here is a photo of this instrument:

From what I can tell, and as have been described to me, the horn is in very good condition with only a couple very small dents (as you would expect on a tuba that was used). For everything being offered, this is worth a trip to pick up if you are in the market for a horn of this size. I will post more information/pictures if/when it comes my way.
