Don't think my first post worked.
Last spring I visited the Ghost Town Of Bodie in Central California and found an old tuba and a picture of the Bodie Brass Band circa 1878 in the Visitor's Center. The inscription on the tuba bell reads (as far a I can tell):
M. Slater
Maker
42 Cortlandt St.
New York

Where would I find information on this company?

Re: The Bodie Tuba
Would this be the tuba in question?

I am fortunate to have a great job that feeds my family well, but music feeds my soul.

Yes, That is a photo of The Bodie Tuba and thanks for the information on where to search. The museum curator took additional photos of the tuba and sent them to me.
