Hi all - with a snow day today, I decided to polish up Jack Richardson's little Sander tuba that was recently given to me by his great nephew. It looks fantastic for being roughly 100 years old!

That’s quite a responsibility! I would think Library of Congress or Smithsonian worthy items. I’m sure they will be welcomed.
The Met has a nice display of historical instruments as well.
