Mystery Tuba Body

[Art Hovey]

This BBb tuba body resembles a King but is a bit bigger. There is a distinctive ridge around the ferrule that connects the bell stack to the big bow. The next ferrule apparently had a similar ridge, but it has been removed. I'd like to know the brand name.

Looks like a Besson ferrule.

Some of the old Reynolds tubas had ferrules like those:
