1st up is my York Master.
Next is my Mirphone 496 Hagen.
Next is my Helicon that the late Harvey Hartman built.
And last but not least is my Zo Tiny Dragon. Sorry, that's the only picture I have of me playing it.

With my Meinl-Weston 30 in 1970 (which I wish I still had) and my Mack Brass 410L in 2020. The conclusion is obvious. Playing tuba puts weight on and gives you gray hair.
